Abstract	The major purpose of this research was to investigate personality factors, academic stress and socio-economic status as factors in suicide ideation among undergraduates. The second purpose was to determine the extent to which personality factors, academic stress and socio-economic status could buffer the negative impacts of suicidal ideation. Cross sectional survey was used for the design of this study and hierarchical multiple regression was adopted for data analysis. Results showed that personality factors, academic stress and socio-economic status jointly and separately predicted suicidal ideation. The research findings implied that interventions strategies to improve social network and assessment of their personality factors may have positive outcome in reducing or preventing suicide ideation among undergraduates
