MANOVA, ANOVA and correlation analysis were used for data analysis. According to the scores obtained from ‘‘LSS’’ and ‘‘AULS’’ a statistically significant difference was found between the average scores of the participants in terms of gender, class, type of university and frequency of participation in physical activity. As a result, it was determined that there was a positive relationship between leisure satisfaction and adaptation to university life in university students.
