  This study was done to put forward the sex and age difference according to school kind by determining the body composition of 12-14 years old residential and nonresidential students. A total of 410 students, 184 residential (75 girls, 109 boys) and 226 nonresidential (111girls, 115 boys) living in districts of Erzincan voluntarily participated in this study.   One Way ANOVA was used to determine the differences among age groups. The differences between sex and school kind was determined by t- test.   From the viewpoint of sex it was established that there were significant differences in body fat percentage, fat mass and lean body mass of students in both school (p<0.01). When the comparison were done between overall residential and nonresidential students, it was determined that there were significant difference in height, body fat persentage and fat mass values (p<0.01, p<0.05). It was established that there were significant difference in body weight and lean body mass values of all age group students in both school. From the viewpoint of fat mass value only between 12-14 age group residential students, but for height variable except 12-13 age group residential students, in all age groups of both school it was determined significant differences (p<0.01, p<0.05). When residential and nonresidential students were compared to age groups, in body weight and lean body mass values only at 13 age, but in height variable at 12 and 13 age significant differences were found (p<0.01).   Consequently both to age group and to overall, it was determined that body composition values of students were higher than residential students.
