This study examined internet entertainment and collaborative learning as correlates of internet use among undergraduate students in Enugu State, South East Nigeria. The study adopted correlation survey design and used two researcher developed questionnaires to collect data from a sample of 1,199 undergraduates in the federal and state universities in Enugu State. The instruments were face validated by experts in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, while their internal consistency was established using Cronbach Alpha. The findings indicate that there is significant positive relationship between the aforementioned social factors and internet use among undergraduate students. Based on these findings, the study made some policy recommendations, among which are that parents, guardians, academic advisers and counsellors should continuously encourage students to use the internet moderately for entertainment purposes so that they can have time for their studies, while students should endeavour to exploit internet facilities to engage in collaborative learning with classmates, lecturers and other professionals in order to enhance their performance.
