This study seeks to examine the impact of Organizational Culture and Digital Competence on student adaptability within the Management Study Program at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Tadulako University. The study challenge emphasizes the significance of student flexibility in response to curricular modifications, advancements in educational technology, and the evolving landscape of a progressively digital academic setting. This research was conducted at Tadulako University, with 39 students chosen by purposive selection. Data were gathered via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression through simultaneous and partial tests. The findings demonstrate that Organizational Culture and Digital Competence substantially affect student adaptation, both concurrently and individually. X1 and X2 explain 57.3% of Y's fluctuation, while 42.7% is impacted by additional factors not in the model. An encouraging, transparent, and flexible Organizational Culture has demonstrated an enhancement in student preparedness for change. Digital Competence is essential for assisting students in navigating the digital learning environment, while certain facets of information understanding require enhancement. These findings affirm that student adaptability arises from the interplay between a supportive academic environment and sufficient digital proficiency.
