This research paper investigates the impact of institutional factors such as academic workload, syllabus content, faculty quality, administrative support, basic facilities, and institutional rules and regulations on the prevalence of dark emotions (sadness, anger, fear, stress, hate, jealousy, ego, hopelessness, guilt, lust) among higher education students. Data were collected from a sample of 2,000 students across various higher education institutions through a structured questionnaire. Chi-square tests and Cramér’s V were used to assess the strength and significance of associations between institutional factors and dark emotions. The results reveal significant relationships between institutional stressors and the prevalence of dark emotions, indicating the critical role institutional environments play in shaping students' emotional well-being
