General rules of thumb:
Elementary school -- 10 minutes per grade (1st = 10 minutes; 5th = 50 minutes)
Middle school -- 20 minutes per subject per night
High school -- 30 minutes minimum per subject per night; more when projects and papers are assigned and big tests are approaching
College -- 3 hours per unit per week.
Look for pockets of time that you can use throughout the day. If you get to school 25 minutes early, spend 15 minutes studying in your car. If you have an hour break between classes, spend it studying.
Flash cards really optimize your ability to leverage windows of time. You can tape some to your bathroom mirror and study them while you brush your teeth. You can use them when you are waiting in line at the bank or on break at work.
It is certainly not recommended, but most people in college have pulled an all night-er at least once, so that means almost everyone could say that 24 hours is the most they have studied in a day.

There is not a set amount to study each day. Generally professors expect that students will spend 3 hours studying for each hour they are in class. So, if a student is taking a 3 credit hour course, they should spend about 9 hours a week studying.
To maximize your learning, spread these 9 hours evenly across the week. This would involve studying slightly more than 1 hour and 15 minutes per day on one class. This will ensure that your mind has time to consolidate the new information. Also, courses such as math and foreign languages need to be worked on everyday to keep the material fresh in your memory.
If 9 hours seems like too much time to study a week, remember that you should be spending time working on your long term projects that are due at the end of the semester.
Cramming or spending excessive hours studying one subject is not a good idea. Your brain gets to a certain point where it cannot take in any new information. The best way to learn information and be able to recall it over the long term is repetition.
