Abstract: Good study habits are the gateway to a successful achievement in studies. A good study habit towards any subject is a combination of discipline, passion and strong will to achieve a better academic performance. This study aimed to determine the effect of study habits of Accountancy students in Ramon Magsaysay Technological University (RMTU) towards their academic performance. The study utilized a descriptive and inferential research design with the questionnaire as the main instrument in data gathering. Quota and convenient sampling were used in selecting the fifty Accountancy students. It was found out that there was a significant difference in sex and age in terms of time management and age alone in terms of teaching strategies and has a significant difference between study habits and academic performance. An intervention was developed which will serve as a guide for the students to learn on how to manage time effectively.
