The sources of the grammatical errors were interlingual transfer, limited knowledge of English grammar, and carelessness. Based on the finding of this study, the researcher concluded that although students have learned English grammar for about four semesters in the University they still have possibility to make an error in their writing abstracts of skirpsi. Therefore, the researcher suggested to the lecturers of English language education to focus on teaching grammar and writing and give more grammatical exercises both spoken and written to the students. The students of English language education should pay more attention to using English grammar, do writing exercises and make peer feedback before publishing their writings.
