The purposes of this research was to investigate the factors predicting students’ academic achievement of Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University (NSTRU). Data was collected from 250 samples and was analyzed by using R Program to find Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Linear Multiple Correlation Coefficient. The research finds that there were three forecasting models which were able to forecast the learning achievement of the students of the faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, NSTRU at the .001 level of significance. This meant that learning habits (X3) were positively associated with the learning achievement at the .001 level of significance. The interaction between the students and the lecturers (X7) was positively associated with the learning achievement at the .05 level of significance. The learning support provided by the parents (X8) was negatively associated with the learning achievement at the .01 level of significance. The forecasting efficiency was 8.79%. The learning habits (X3) were the highest relation and the learning support provided by the parents (X8) was the lowest relation. Finally, the equation used to forecast in the form of the raw score was as follows:

         Y^Y = 1.98+0.18X3 + 0.11X7 – 0.10X8

         These results are useful to the students, lecturers, parents, educational institute and other related organizations to realize how to do their work to the best of their abilities. Their full effort will support the students to get the desirable learning achievement with life skills.
