In the last decades with the democratization of access to Brazilian higher education and the high repetition rates and university evasion, investigations on how students study and use the resources in the learning process are essential due to the complexity of factors involving success academic. The objective of this research was to investigate the study skills, habits and attitudes (SSHA) used by college students and its relationship to academic performance. This was a study of broad scope, descriptive, observational and retrospective ex post fact, performed with students from undergraduate courses of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) in the areas of Biosciences (CB), Exact (CCET), Health (CCS), Human Sciences (CCHLA) Applied Social (CCSA) and Technology (CT). The sample consisted of 1,443 students distributed in 55 undergraduate courses, being most women (56%), with predominant age of 19-22 years (54.7%), single (92.4%), with predominant family income between 1 to 5 minimum wages (65.8%) and that made the whole high school in a private school (44.1%). The instrument used was an online questionnaire with answers on Likert scale developed by the masters student and collaborators, and applied by the information system of the university (SIGAA). The instrument included sociodemographic variables and study SHA (study conditions, motivation, time management, planning of studies, exploitation of classroom studies and optimization of the reading). Data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistical (relative and absolute frequency) and inferential (correlation, analysis of variance and multiple linear regression), having as a dependent variable the Academic Efficiency Ratio (IEA) used by the university. The results in the regression analysis to better fit in the model were: Exact (R ² = 0.57), Technology (R² = 0.29) Biosciences (R² = 0.26) and Human Sciences (R² = 0.20). The SSHA predictor variables of study for common academic performance between areas were: the taste by studies, set goals, organize notes of materials to avoid accumulation, meet schedule and study schedules, participation and attendance in class and write summaries of readings. The peculiarities of each area were: the students of Exact seem to feel motivated to be challenged to learn new things, Health students refers to the attitude of valuing their studies recognizing the future benefits, students of Bioscience underscored a time to make physical activities, students of Technological area have mentioned to make notes about the teacher's explanations for re-read them later. Students of Applied Social reported a complementary reading indicated by the teacher and Humanities students indicated the habit of reading books your particular area. It is concluded that identify, characterize and verify the recognition of college students and the importance of SSHA by knowledge area, provides higher education institutions rethink their teaching methods, their indicators and benchmarks also seeking to encourage the creation of programs guidance for the study and promote academic success.
