Therefore, this paper to investigated the relationship between recycling behavior and environmental sustainability in HEI. The recycling behavioral factors such as awareness, attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavior control and 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) are most related to environmental sustainability. The valid respondents of 379 sample have been collected and analyzed using SPSS software and found that attitude and 3Rs are highly significantly variables to achieved environmental sustainability in HEI.
