With a total of 342 participants, the sample of the study consists of 129 female and 213 male students studying at the Faculty of Sports Sciences. Data collection tools used in the study are Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) and Academic Procrastination Scale (APS). The research was conducted following the relational screening model which is a subgroup of the general survey model. The normal distribution, descriptive statistics, t-test, Anova test, Post-hoc test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and regression analysis were used in the statistical evaluation of the data. Findings revealed that there was a weak positive correlation between COVID-19 fear and academic procrastination behavior. Moreover, the results also revealed that students who worked out during the pandemic had less fear of COVID-19, however, this did not affect students' academic procrastination behavior.
