Abstract. Learning style is one of the important factors  needed to absorb, store and process the new information. This research is a study to see the profile and percentage of studenst learning styles of SWCU Biology Education students and the influence of different learning styles on the GPA obtained. Researcher got the data of  students’ learning styles by using questionnaire.  The statistical procedures employed in this study were one-way ANOVA. The results showed  that the largest percentage of learning styles that were used  by the students of biology education were auditory learning styles by 32% and the VAK (Visual Auditory Kinesthetic) learning style was the least used by education students by 2%. The analysis of the percentage of learning styles showed that 72% of students with auditory learning styles reached a satisfactory category until magna cum laude, but the percentage of students that used VAK (Visual Auditory Kinesthetic ) learning styles only reached satisfying GPA level. Statistical test results in this study demonstrated that the use of learning styles did not give significantly different effect on the students’ GPA.Keywords: Personal Learning Styles, Grade Point Average  Abstrak. Gaya belajar adalah salah satu faktor penting yang diperlukan untuk menyerap, menyimpan dan memproses informasi baru.
