The aim of this study is to explore business students’ perceptions on SNSs and its effects on their learning experience. 327 survey questionnaires were distributed to business students in one of the public university in Malaysia via a random sampling approach. The results demonstrated that students use SNSs to get help from their course mates as well as their tutors on academic matters.
