The pattern of tobacco, alcohol, and other substance use was assessed among 1,197 Chinese undergraduates in Hong Kong. Students reported their current and past use of tobacco (13%), alcohol (61%), marijuana (2%), and other illicit drugs (0.4%). Perceptions of risk from the use of different substances were low among those who use substances and among senior students. The rate of substance use was higher among males, residents of university hall, senior students, and among those who possessed a positive attitude towards substance use. There were significant associations between different substance uses among the respondents.
