Academic anxiety in students arises due to the many tasks that must be done following the demands implemented in higher education. Various factors that increase a person’s academic anxiety include learning experience, age, gender, and the size of the stressor. Symptoms that appear in individuals who experience anxiety include difficulty sleeping, difficulty concentrating, feeling sleepy easily, and so on. One of the guidance and counseling services that counselors can provide for students who experience academic anxiety is group counseling services using bibliotherapy techniques using the Al-Qur’an approach. This research uses quantitative research methods with a pre-experimental research design, one group pre-test, post-test design. The population was 146 BKPI (Bimbingan Konseling Pendidikan Islam) students and the sample consisted of 8 students whose academic anxiety was in the high category according to the pre-test results. Post-test results show that students’ academic anxiety after being treated was in the low category. The Wilcoxon test results show that the Asymp.Sig (2-tailed) probability number is 0.042, smaller than 0.005, which means the hypothesis is accepted. Bibliotherapy group counseling using the Al-Qur’an approach is a service that can reduce students’ academic anxiety. The implication is to read verses in the Al-Qur’an relevant to the academic problems students face.
