Pengendalian diri atau kontrol diri punya peran yang penting dalam kehidupan masyarakat sehingga menarik untuk diteliti terkait hubungannya dengan perilaku konsumtif. Untuk itu, penelitian ini dibuat untuk mengetahui tingkat kontrol diri, tingkat perilaku konsumtif, serta hubungan antara kontrol diri dengan perilaku konsumtif khususnya pada mahasiswa Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan (FKIP) di salah satu universitas swasta yang ada di Sulawesi Utara. Metode penelitian kuantitatif dan korelatif digunakan dalam penelitian ini dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 200 mahasiswa. Selanjutnya, nilai rerata digunakan untuk mencari tahu tingkat kontrol diri dan perilaku konsumtif. Sementara untuk mencari tahu hubungan kontrol diri dengan perilaku konsumtif maka digunakan uji korelasi Pearson. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah (1) kontrol diri mahasiswa berada pada kategori tinggi atau mahasiswa setuju dapat mengontrol diri dalam berbelanja dengan nilai rerata 4.10; (2) perilaku konsumtif mahasiswa berada pada kategori rendah atau mahasiswa tidak setuju bahwa mereka berperilaku konsumtif atau mengonsumsi barang secara berlebihan dalam berbelanja dengan nilai rerata 2.35, serta (3) hasil analisis data menggunakan uji korelasi Pearson menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang kuat dan signifikan secara negatif antara sikap kontrol diri dengan perilaku konsumtif dengan nilai rxy=  -0.360 dan nilai signifikansi p 0.000<0.05. Dengan demikian, semakin tinggi kontrol diri pada mahasiswa, semakin rendah perilaku konsumtifnya.
