The present study focused on the Emotional Intelligence and Life Satisfaction of young adult college students between the ages of 18-25 years. A quantitative correlational research design was used. Convenience sampling technique was used for the study of 53 college students from Bhopal. The Brief Emotional Intelligence Scale (BEIS-10) and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) were administered via an online Google Form to gather data. The statistical analysis was performed by descriptive statistics, tests of normality and Spearman's rank correlation. The results showed that the data were in non-normal distribution. Emotional intelligence was found to be significantly positively correlated with life satisfaction (ρ = .342, p = .012) which indicated that emotional intelligence was positively related with college students' life satisfaction. The results highlight the importance of emotional intelligence in promoting psychological well-being, emotional regulation, and adaptive functioning among young adults. The study highlights the importance of implementing emotional skills training and counseling programs in schools to improve students' well-being and life satisfaction.
