The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the global educational system; it forced the closure of educational facilities, which had a negative impact on student fraternities everywhere. Because of its contagiousness, COVID-19 required containment and imposed isolation, which significantly hampered teacher-student relationships. Computer-based learning has become the closest replacement for offline instruction in the absence of traditional classroom instruction and one-on-one interaction. In light of this, it is important to look at how students perceive and are prepared for the online learning system during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. From the total population of Pollachi taluk 345 arts, engineering, and management students from Bharathiar University and Anna University were surveyed online for their opinions as part of the research. From June to August 2020, this research study was carried out. It highlight students' favorable perceptions of e-learning and the key factors that influence its acceptance as a new form of instruction. Additionally, it has empirically proven the value of online education during the COVID-19 crisis. In fact, social media may help to further enhance learning outcomes as e-learning emerges as a new method of enhancing the learning process. It will help educational institutions and policy makers advance this online learning process in a more effective way. The researcher has chosen reliability and factor analysis to organize factors.
