E-learning is substantially becoming a popular effective learning approach within greater academic settings due to high use of web systems in learning. E-learning involves utilization of information and communication technology (ICT) to improve and help teaching and learning. The aim of this study was to estimate the relationship between e-learning and students' academic achievement in higher education. Based on systematic sampling approach, a sample of 15 research studies conducted between 2010 and 2013 were used in computation of results using the Cohen's model. The computed results (= 0.782) indicate that ICT has a statistically significant positive impact on e-learning based students' academic achievements. The findings indicate that ICT has a significant positive impact on students' educational overall academic achievements.
