The study examines the impact of Metaverse technologies on higher education, with a focus on the challenges posed by an underfunded education system in Albania. To explore these problems in depth, the study surveyed 207 university students from across Albania to gather their views on the application of Metaverse tools in education, the impact of these tools on their learning, and the barriers that hinder further use of the technology. As results indicate, students are quite positive about adopting Metaverse technologies. From their perspective, the main factors these technologies contribute to are increased motivation, improved teamwork, and enhanced problem-solving. Along with identifying these major benefits, students also highlight the serious barriers they perceive, including the high costs associated with using technology and privacy concerns. Focusing on Albania’s specific situation, this research offers practical guidance for educators, policymakers, and developers seeking to introduce immersive learning to more students in resource-constrained settings.
