Summary/Abstract: The aim of this descriptive study is to determine relation between learning styles, learning methods and academic achievement of university students. This study was conducted in 2014 and the sample was consisted of 130 university students training in second and forth levels from School of Health. We used Turkish version of VARK scale for determining learning styles. In this study, 60.0% of the students were using of multimodal and 40.0% were using unimodal learning styles. The kinesthetic modal was the most preferred among the unimodal learning styles. We found that the usage of visual and auditory learning styles was very low despite the content of nursing education programs. Nursing programs necessitate skills on problem solving in clinical education from first to fourth years which were based on patient education, treatment and care. Therefore academicians in nursing schools should encourage to students using active learning styles.
