This study examines the relationship between physical activity participation and academic outcomes among female college students in Bangladesh. Recognizing the dual mission of higher education institutions to promote academic excellence and holistic student development, the research explores how engagement in structured exercise and physical activity influences learning outcomes, cognitive functioning, and overall academic performance. A quantitative research design was employed, involving a sample of female undergraduate students from selected colleges. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires assessing physical activity levels and academic indicators. Statistical analyses revealed a significant positive association between regular physical activity and improved academic performance, attention, and motivation for learning. The findings suggest that integrating physical activity within institutional programs can serve as an effective strategy for enhancing both educational attainment and student well-being. The study underscores the importance of strengthening physical education and co-curricular sports initiatives as part of comprehensive academic support systems in higher education.
