Abstract: Toward the end of the semester, students face various academic demands that can trigger stress and affect sleep quality. Adequate sleep quality is a crucial aspect of physical health, cognitive function, and academic performance. However, research findings regarding the relationship between academic stress and sleep quality remain inconsistent. This study aims to analyze the relationship between academic stress and sleep quality among students towards the end of the semester. This quantitative study utilized a cross-sectional design involving 41 respondents selected through total sampling. Academic stress was measured using the Perception of Academic Stress Scale (PASS), while sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The analysis revealed that the correlation coefficient between academic stress and sleep quality was 0.064, with a significance value (p-value) of 0.693. These findings indicate that there is no significant relationship between academic stress and sleep quality among students towards the end of the semester.
