The objective of this article was to determine the relationship that exists between the lifestyles and the academic performance of the students of the Faculty of Nursing, of the National Hermilio Valdizán University, in Huánuco, Peru in 2019. The type of study used It was descriptive, cross-sectional correlation. The instrument used to evaluate the considered healthy lifestyle is an adaptation of the Inventory of Health Behaviors in Schoolchildren, designed by the World Health Organization. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics and the Chi-square statistical test was used for inferential analysis. All the students enrolled in the academic year, from the first to the fifth year, were used. After the evaluation, 95% of the students had Healthy Lifestyles practices and 5% were Unhealthy, and of these, when correlating with Academic Performance, 25% (63) had a good performance and a 70% (176) their performance was regular. When applying the statistical tests, an X2 = 252 and a P <0.05 were found, which is interpreted to be statistical evidence that the Lifestyles that are practiced are significantly related to the Academic Performance of the students, thus demonstrating the research hypothesis.
