Conclusion: The study findings conclude that there was high perception of collage students' related to administrative system obstacles, and high perception of academic advisors related to college student obstacles and high perception of cadmic advisors related to suggestion to manage the cadmic advising obstacles than students' perceptions. Recommendations: It is recommended that the faculty administration should design plans to improve the quality of academic advisors by hiring and retaining superior advising personnel and enhancing the skills of those excellent academic advisors
