Processing data for univariate and bivariate analysis using the chi-square test. The results showed that the level of knowledge of nutritional patterns indicated that 12 people (5.6%) had insufficient knowledge, 82 people (38.5%) had sufficient knowledge and 119 people (55.9%) had good knowledge and obtained p = 0.171. (p>0.05). It was concluded that the level of knowledge of nutritional patterns among new students had no relationship to nutritional status or the level of knowledge of nutritional patterns was not a risk factor for nutritional status.
