EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The main objective of this study was to determine the level of self-compassion, achievement goals and coping strategies used by the students who experienced failure. The study was conducted at the University of Rizal System in Morong, Rizal. The researchers utilized the fifty (50) college students who experienced to fail at the qualifying exam in College of Education or Retention exam in College of Engineering and now enrolled at different courses from College of Science and College of Industrial Technology. Descriptive-quantitative research design was used. the researchers adopted questionnaire-checklist self-compassion scale by Kristin Neff. Ph. D, Goal Orientation Scales by Carol Midgley et. al and COPE Inventory by Carver, C.S. (2013). The data gathered were tabulated and interpreted. Weighted mean and T-test distribution were used as statistical treatment. Based on the data gathered, students who experienced academic failure have an average level self-compassion and performance orientations of achievement goals. They are highly task-goal oriented and they use various coping strategies in dealing with their failure. Students' self-compassion was positively related to adaptation of task-goal in academic setting, seeking sympathy from others and giving up efforts at times of failure. Both performance-orientations of achievement goal are linked to seeking God's help, acceptance, seeking sympathy and mental disengagement. Only performance -approach is linked to planning and putting aside other school activities in order to better focus on the problem while performance-avoid is linked to learning from previous failure, denial, waiting for the right moment to act and susceptibility to substance use. The researchers offer the following recommendations: intervention program, information dissemination, self-assessment programs and parallel studies are related to self-compassion, achievement goal orientations and coping strategies.
