The investigation of language learning motivation is an important field in language pedagogy since it is seen as one of the key variables contributing to the successful acquisition of a foreign or second language (Kormos & Csizer, 2010). Therefore, this paper aims to find out the effect of motivational factors on the foreign language success of students at King Khaled Military Academy (KKMA). The study was applied to 104 second grade male cadets in the second semester of the 2014-2015 academic year. The participants of the study are military cadets and have been studying English for nearly eight years. The instruments used for data collection was a questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of three main parts. In Part I, there are questions aiming to collect some background information about the participants. In Part 2 and 3, the questions aim to collect data on the relationship between different types of motivation and the foreign language success. The collected data was analyzed by using SPSS 11.5 statistical package. Frequency, mean, independent t-test, ANOVA and Pearson Correlation analysis were used to analyze the data obtained.
