Abstract: The fundamental objective of this paper is to know the students' perceptions about online learning (OL) during COVID-19 in Sylhet division, Bangladesh. The non-probability technique (purposive sampling) has been used to collect the data. We purposively selected 25 students who are currently pursuing either undergraduate or masters at private universities in Sylhet, Bangladesh. After getting the feedback from nine students, it was found that the similar types of answers (saturation point) were coming. Thus, these nine students are considered as sample size. The findings showed that online learning is effective for higher education in Bangladesh though it has some barriers. Besides, faculty members need to play a more important role in online learning during COVID-19 because an efficient teacher must know the ways of online learning better than anyone to complete the academic activities. From the findings of this study, the university authority, UGC and Ministry of Education will be able to know the students' perceptions towards the online learning.
