INTRODUCTION Background of the Study
In this era of globalization and technological revolution, education is considered as the first step for every human activity. It plays a vital role in the development of human capital and is linked with an individual’s well -being and opportunities for better living. It ensures the acquisitions of knowledge and skills that enable individual to increase their productivity and improve their quality of life. This increase in productivity also leads toward new sources of earnings which enhances the economic growth of the country. The quality of the students performance remains top priority for education. It is meant for making a difference locally, regionally, nationally and globally. Educators, trainers and researchers have long been interested in explaining variables contributing effectively for quality performance of learners ( Crosnoe, Shannon and Elder, 2003). The approach is to focus the study in determining the differences between the boarding
and
non-boarding
criminology
students
in
terms
of
expenses
and
consequences in relation to their school performance or studies. The researchers wanted to discover the reason why some students were late in their class and why they have difficulties in budgeting their allowance. It was observe that non-boarding studentscould even go to school early, while some boarding students are late. It was also observe that some students can pay their fees as soon as possible but some students cannot. These statements kept the researchers asking how students cope up with such factors that might affect their school performance. This study is focused on investigating the differences between boarding and nonboarding criminology students in terms of expenses and consequence in relation to their studies. 1
Statement of the Problems
This study is focused on the factors affecting boarding and non-boarding criminology students in relation to their school performance. Specifically, it seek answer to the following questions: 1. What is the demographic profile of boarding and non-boarding criminology students in terms of: a. Age b. Sex c. Civil Status d. Ethnic Affiliation e. Place of Residence f. Weekly Allowance 2. What is the ratio of boarding and non-boarding criminology students to the total population of Criminology department? 3. Is there a difference between boarding and non-boarding criminology students in terms of: a. Weekly Allowance b. Weekly Common Expenses c. Attendance in School Activities d. Academic Performance e. Behavior
Definition of Terms Accademic Performance- it refers to the learning gap between what students
should learn and what the students actually learn as signified by the grade(Rowland,2004). Civil Status- it refers to being single or married, widow/er, separated or
divorce(Wendy Doyle, 2010). Boarding House-it refers to the second home environment where the students
take provisional lodging under the supervision of the boarding house owners. 2
Boarding Student- it refers to the renter who holds the right to use a piece
ofland or structure by agreement under supervision of the boarding owner or property owner(S. E. Smith,2003-10). Economic Growth-is an increase in the capacity of an economy to produce
goods and services, compared from one period of time to another(Investopedia). Demographic Profile- it is the analysis of the population on the basis of age,
percentage, physical condition, ethnicity, occupation, civil position, size and density of each composite division(Lagnason, et. al., April 2010). Milieu- the physical or social setting in which people live or in which something
happens or develop(Mirriam Webster’s) Non-boarding Students- it refers to the student at college or university who
does not reside in the facilities provided by the institution(Benedict College, 2000). It refers to those students who prepare to go home after class. Place of Residence- it refers to living or dwelling in certain place permanently or
for considerable length of time where a person makes his home(Tracy, 2011). Time management and Discipline- possitive discipline throughout the process
of planning, acting and achieving. Time management is a core discipline that largely determines the quality of life (Tracy, 2011). Weekly Allowance- it refers to the amount of money set aside for designated
purpose in a week time. Weekly Expenses- it is the amount of money used as a payment for a certain
thing or service.

Review of Related Literature
Boarding Student
A boarding student lives in a housing either provided by the school or not. They are called boarders. A boarding student is typically subjected to any rules and regulation provided by the school or by the owner. They normally go home during holidays and often weakends. A student have two options in a boarding school, the 5 day boarding and 7 day boarding. In a typical school year,approximately 70% of the students are boarding. The 5 day boarders usually live within reasonable driving distance or get picked up by their parents or guardians of the school on Friday afternoon.The 7 day boarders live in the boarding house for almost one week.After school on Friday, they have free time and sometimes they attend a supervised study or also known traditional work to begin on their assignments.After study session, they join several of their friends. Students enjoy many opportunities that boarding school life provides while parents appreciate the enhanced educational experience their child recieves, including the structure daily schedule and supervised study time,as well as a defined social work. Boarding schools provides the ideal atmosphere in which to balance the classroom education with sports,recreation and community service.This produces a well rounded and confident students,even among those who may have trouble focusing in a larger size or a less structured social melieu.These boarding school will give a child a number of advantages.They teach independence and responsibility,and help students succeed at higher rates than day schools,according to the researchmade by the association of boarding schools. First boarding schools provide more apportunities for leadership.Second boarding schools are modern and more internationally aware. Third student who board enjoy structured learnning and use their more productively and last forth 87% of former students boarders say they are well prepared to face life.

Acceptance to North American universities from this schools is a relatively simple matter compared with accreditation of school programs of overseas institution. The boarding school in our data base feuture extensive facilities for academic learning.The latest computers and other modern technical equipment are standard.The opprerating hours center to the student attending the school moving them even suffer than that are off premises. Modern boarding school offer structure,superviion,safety community and support all without the corporal discipline formely assoiated with the traditional boarding schools.If the website of a boarding schools you are considering does not list a facility that you seek,remember to ask about it.Commonly,faculty lead field trips extend learning beyond the wall as the natural local splendow and culture.
Non-boarding students
Is the students in the college or university who does not reside in the facilities provided by an institution. Non boarding students would live in housing they acquire by their own means. A non boarding student retains relative freedom when at home.It is also called as a day and return off campus to their families in the evenings.
Time management and discipline
Your ability to think, plan and work hard in the short term and to discipline yourself to do what is right and necessary before you do what is fun and easy is the key to creating a wonderful future yourself.Just like the Colonel,we know the right things to do,but ofen choose an easier route.This is why self-discipline is the key needed to break the habit of mediority. Now a days college students are spending less time in studying.The fall 2003 survey conducted by the higher education research institute at UCLAS Graduate School of Education and Information Studies found that only 34% of todays students are spending more than six hours per week outside their classes on academic related activities like comepleting homework,self-studying etc. during their high school period. Today college students are less prepared for college level work that their predecessors. 5
Once they get into college, they tend to spend less time for studying and would like to do part time job, some even full time(D.T. Smart, C.A. Kelly And J.S Conant, 1999). Time management plays a vital role in improving student academic performance.Each and every students academic performance. Each and every student should have time management ability which includes setting goals and priorities, using time management mechanism (such as making “TO DO LIST”) and being organized in using time. Here, time management is only possible through self-motivation. Performance = Ability. Motivation for examples,students with every high ability but low motivation is unlikely to perform well, whereas a student with low ability but high motivation is likely to perform well. That is the variability in motivation across student. The basic problems or constraints related to time management are like:
Spending hours on social-networking sites.
Talking too much on phone
No proper schedule
Working for the organization no proper guidance
No goals, objectives, mission, vission or target.
Hanging outside with friends.
These are the few activities performed by today’s college students, which act as a barrier between them and their school performance. And due to mismanagement of time they lag behind. This study will help to analyze the possitive and negative impact of time management on accademic or school performance of students. It will also help to make some decision about changes we would like to make to use our time more effectively. “There is no one right way to manage our time, however; it is important to get to know our self, so we can make good decisions about how to use our time. Self-discipline can be considered a type of seductive training, creating new habits of thought, action, and speech toward improving yourself, reaching goals and can also be task oriented and selective. Waking up early for school has recently been acknowledged as reason why students are not performing to the best of their ability. Sleepy students are less likely to pay attention to their teachers. Physical activity can improve student performance.
6
The brain are sharpened with physical exercise in the same way muscles are strengthened. Academic performance increases when time management skills are wellhandled. Time management is a skill that directlyimpacts your academic performance. Effective time management strategies make studying and school work less overwhelming and more enjoyable. Academic stress occurs when students feel the pressure of cramming for exams, rushing through homeworks and getting minimal sleep because of disorganization and worry. Effecttive time management techniques should not only beapplied to your life but to your overall schedule to achieve success and peace of mind. One of the hardest part of properly managing time is using your will power to avoid common time wasters. This type of will power comes in the form of selfdiscipline. Many people have a negativeassociation to the word, discipline. The word discippline means the practice of following rules or a code of behavior. One of the ways that discipline is enforced is through punishment. In this case it is the opposite. Without self-discipline for time management one can experience the punishment of stagnation and being unproductive. Students who find time management difficult tend to lack motivation. There are conflicting opinions regarding whether the lack of motivation stems from the frustration of feeling that there is not enough time available to study and attend classes,or if the lack of motivation was there to begin with, resulting in poorer academic performance. Either way, students should focus on their goals with passion that will carry them through to success. Sometimes this means rejuvenating by joining a gym or entertaining a hobby. While this might seem to opposite the purpose of focusing on studies, exercise and enjoyment can fit into a carefully planned schedule in such a way that they will actually increase motivation and encourage good study habits. While students who manage time well undoubtedly achieve a higher level of academic performance, their achievements also give them a greater sense of selfesteem. Life is more enjoyable in general without the stress of a huge task in list 7
lingering in the back of your mind. Confidence soars with higher grades, and the student carries those effective time management skills and learning habits into the work world. Their careers and family life are bound to be more successful and stress-free, and the pride they feel from academic success is like a trophy that they will carry to their future generations. Today’s college students are less prepared for college -level work than their prodecessors. Once they get to college they tend to spend fewer hours studying while spending more hours working, some even full time (D. T. Smart, C.A. Kelly, & J. S. Conant, 1999). There is perhaps no area of your life where self-discipline is more important than in the way you manage your time. Time managementis a core discipline that largely determine the quality of your life. Peter Drucker once says, “You cannot manage time; you can only manage yourself.” Time management is really life management, personal
management,
management
of
yourself
rather
than
of
time
or
circumstances. Time is perishable; It cannot be saved. Time is irreplaceable; nothing else can replace it. Time is irretrievable; once it is gone or wasted you can never get it back. Finally, time is indespensable, especially for accomplishment of any kind. All achievements, all results and all success requires time. The fact that you cannot save time; you can only spend it differently. You can only move your time usage from areas of low value to areas of high value. Herein lies the key to success, and the requirement for self-discipline.

Research Design
The study used the descriptive method of research. The descriptive research design enables researchers to describe or to present the picture of a phenomenon or phenomena under investigation. One of the most appropriate and useful data gathering devices of the descriptive method is the questionaire. Hence, it was used in the study. This study was a survey on the expenses and consequences of boarding and non-boarding students from criminology department, Quirino State University using questionaire.The
data
gathered
were
tabulated,analyze
and
interpreted
using
descriptive analysis.
Statistical Tool Used
In order to interpret the data gathered, the frequency counts, simple percentages and ranking were used. 1.Frequency count and percentage. These were used to enumerate the answer of the profile of the respondents as to age, sex, place of residence, civil status, weekly allowance. 2.Mean. This was used to describe the attitude and behavior of the respondents.
Sample and Sampling technique/procedures
The criminology students are the respondents of the reseach. A questionaire was made and used in collecting data or information from the respondents. Questionable was distributed by the researchess to ensure 100% retrieval.
