This research was pre-experimental research with pre-test and post-test design. It was conducted at the students of Hamzanwadi University in the academic year 2017-2018. The sample consisted of 28 students. In determining the sample, this study used cluster random sampling technique. The data was collected using objective test in form of multiple choices. In addition, to test the hypothesis the data was analyzed by using descriptive statistic and paired sample t-test test. The present researcher found that the mean score of post-test (14.21) was greater than the mean score of pre-test (9.96). The result of paired sample t-test indicated that there was a significant difference in the mean score between pre-test and post-test, t(df=27) = 34.84 at p < .01. Based on the finding, it can be concluded that EGRA technique was significantly effective in enhancing students’ ability in passive voice at the second semester of EFL university students.
