This research paper focused on the study of three Universities and conducted an in-depth interview as data collection tool. Various Social Medias, journals and other secondary sources were used to accumulate information’s for the research study. The research was conducted to explore and to evaluate the effectiveness of the existing system as well as to find out the perception of the employees about the present implementation system of the teaching and non-teaching staff on the overall performance appraisal systems of different Nepalese Universities. The findings revealed that the Universities of Nepal had not used it for the overall academic progress due to the lack of knowledge, training skills, feedback before and after evaluation. As well, it seems like a formality for the promotions and selections of the employees with lack of accountability, transparency, proficient human resources mentors. As a result, the achievement was noticed separate in different Universities but in overall, it was not found to be effective and enormous influence by the self-interest of the powerful persons in the Universities. It has been felt that theory of motivation should be applied to the appraising staff for solid motivation, guidelines, provides incentives and rewards with feedback and timely appraisal system should be conducted transparently for the overall success of the Universities of Nepal.
