The population and sample of the study consisted of 533 students studying in these departments. In this study, the correlational survey model, one of the quantitative research designs, was used. In the scale used in the study, first of all, questions were asked to learn the demographic information of the students. In the second part, the Organizational Commitment Scale developed by Meyer and Allen (1997) was applied to measure the commitment of university students to school. In the final section, the Leisure Satisfaction Scale developed by Beard and Ragheb (1980) was used to determine the leisure satisfaction levels of university students. Using the SPSS program to analyze the data obtained from the scales, it was determined that the data followed a normal distribution. The data from the scales were obtained through t-test, periodic analyses, Anavo, and post-hoc tests in cases of significant results. The findings of the study showed that there was a significant difference in the participants\\\' school commitment in terms of gender, age, income level, and type of leisure time activity. No relationship was found between school commitment levels, and, the department, and duration of education. No significant relationship was found between leisure satisfaction levels and gender, age, major, duration of education, monthly income level and type of leisure. Participants\\\' levels of commitment to school have been shown to have a moderate, positive, and meaningful relationship with their leisure satisfaction. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that as the school commitment levels of the participants increased, their leisure satisfaction level increased.
