This study was aimed to investigate the nutritional status of Korean female college students who are attending school at a long distance. Physique classification by anthropomethic indexes, Body mass index(BMI) & Brocas’ index and the body fat distribution were investigated. The energy balance was also examined comparing caloric intake with caloric expenditure. The results of this study are followings: (1) Average height and weight were 158.0±17.8㎝, 51.7±7.8㎏. This results were not quite different from ’84 Korean Adult Standard of 159.5㎝, 52.5㎏. (2) By Broca’s index, 25.89% of subjects was underweight, 67.0% was normal weight and 7.06% was overweight. By BMI, 40% of subjects was underweight, 58.8% was normal weight and 1.2% was overweight. (3) According to % fat measured By BIA, 7% in subjects was underweight, 64.2% was normal weight, 22% was overweight and 6.1% was obesity. This result differed from BMI’s result. It may be measurement error due to the difficulty of removing metal sticking to underwear and tooth correction. (4) The intakes of the nutrients except protein, P, vitamin B₁ complexes, were lower than the intakes indicated by Korean Recommended Allowances. (5) Average caloric intake a day was 1545±395.4㎉, which was much lower than the RDA. The caloric expenditure was much more than caloric intake, which showed negative energy balance in the subjects of this study.
