Digital literacy has become an essential competency for improving student learning outcomes in higher education. This study examines the relationship between digital literacy and student learning outcomes through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA 2020 framework. Studies published between 2019 and 2023 were systematically collected from major academic databases and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that digital literacy positively influences learning outcomes by strengthening digital competence, information literacy, critical thinking, digital communication, and effective use of technology. Institutional support, technological infrastructure, and equitable access to digital resources further enhance students' digital literacy development. However, challenges including the digital divide, unequal technology access, differences in digital competence, and institutional readiness continue to affect implementation. The study concludes that strengthening digital literacy is essential for improving academic performance, lifelong learning, and graduate readiness in higher education.
