Emotional intelligence and self-confidence are indispensable factors of individual growth, personality development and resilience in the face of challenges. This study explores the impact of educational setup on self-confidence among college girls, comparing uni-sex and co-educational colleges. The researchers employed a cross-sectional exploratory design to examine the level of self-confidence among college girls in uni-sex and co-educational systems, seeking to determine the influence of the educational setup on students' perceptions. Data were collected from 200 participants from two colleges, one uni-sex and one co-educational, using Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale. The data were then analyzed using descriptive, univeriate, and bivariate statistics to uncover insights into the relationship between educational setup and self-confidence. The study's findings indicate that both uni-sex and co-educational systems significantly impact girls' self-confidence and academic achievement. Notably, the co-educational system fostered higher self-esteem among girls compared to the uni-sex college system. Self-confidence levels were influenced by factors such as age, family income, and living areas. The research highlights the need for targeted interventions, particularly in uni-sex colleges, to develop nurturing programs promoting self-esteem, emotional resilience, and leadership, and emphasizes the importance of specialized initiatives catering to students from diverse socio-economic backgrounds.
