The expressiveness of the various components of the studied parameters reflects a complex picture of the process of academic adaptation of applicants to the educational environment of higher education institutions (a significantly higher level of communicative and motivational components and a lower level of psychophysiological; a higher expression of the socio-psychological component of adaptation readiness and a lower level of psychological; a higher level of significance of relationships compared to attitude to activity). The strongest factors of academic adaptation are the significance of interactions with the administration and fellow students with whom good and bad relations have developed, and the significance of lecture classes. A direct factor of adaptation readiness is its psychological component. The adaptation readiness of applicants explains the general academic adaptation somewhat less. However, it mediates the connection between the significance of situations and adaptation. As a relatively stable formation, adaptive readiness can perform the role of a shock absorber in the system of relations in the educational environment. Therefore, the obtained results can be used for socio-psychological support of academic adaptation of applicants at its various levels
