Data collection lasted for one month with 172 undergraduate students and the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed for data analysis. The finding shows that subjective norm positivelyinfluencesperceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, experience positively influencesperceived ease of use and enjoyment positively influencesperceived ease of use. Also, computer anxiety positively influencesperceived usefulness and perceivedease of use and perceived usefulness positively influencesintentions and perceived ease of use positively influencesperceived usefulness. This study is also one of the very few studies that use the GETAMEL model for e-learning settings in developing countries. The results have significant practical implications for educational institutions as well as decision makers in terms of the design of the e-learning system in theuniversity.
