The integration of ChatGPT in higher education has gained significant popularity globally. However, there is a limited understanding of students' perceptions regarding the use of ChatGPT in this context. This study aims to investigate foundation program students' perceptions of using ChatGPT in higher education. A survey design utilizing an online questionnaire was employed, involving 107 foundation program students at a private university. Students have concerns about the reliability and accuracy of the information provided by ChatGPT, yet they acknowledge that utilizing ChatGPT improves their learning experience, although it may not have a significant impact on their academic performance. These insights can be valuable for educational institutions seeking to integrate ChatGPT effectively, addressing student concerns, and optimizing its benefits. Furthermore, future research should explore students' experiences and intentions to use towards using ChatGPT in higher education to provide a comprehensive understanding of its potential impact.
