Type of study is important in acquiring knowledge given and needed for certain profession. Thus, valuable to identify the approaches used by students on it would help program to tailor annual effective delivery system and curricular review. This study was conducted to determine approaches used among undergraduate Occupational Therapy (OT) students. A cross-sectional study conducted involving 91 participants from semester four, semester six and semester eight of undergraduate OT in students UiTM Selangor, Puncak Alam Campus. All the participants need to answer a questionnaire that consist of Approaches and Study Skills Inventory for Students (ASSIST) short version was used to identify the tendencies of students to adopt approach to studying. 91 participants, 35% of students used deep approach (n=32), 33% used surface approach (n=30), and 32% used strategic approach (n=29).
