A total of 193 respondents from Faculty of Pharmacy (34 students), Faculty of Public Health (59 students), Faculty of Dentistry (27 students), Faculty of Medicine (29 students), and School of Nursing (44 students) participated in the study after giving their consents. All respondents have had acne at some points of their life. The average level of knowledge was 17.3 ± 3.6 (max score 30) and there was astatistically significant difference of means (p=0.002) among the respondents, based on their faculties. Self-medication (n=49; 58%) was more prefered than medical assistance (n=35; 41.7%).
