People think deeply about what they are and what their identities are through various experiences during their university days, and it is essential to feel adapted to and content with university life to make the university days meaningful. This study examines the effects of leisure time, how much time is spent on leisure, and life adaptability or satisfaction regarding university. The first purpose is to clarify how much time is spent and on what during the Golden Week, which is a Japanese term for several holidays between the end of April and early May. Second, this study examines the relationship between leisure time and life adaptability or satisfaction regarding university. The survey was conducted among 98 university students (48 male and 50 female) in mid-May of 2016. The results show that about one-third of the participants had only one or no free day during the Golden Week in 2016 and that there are no relationships between leisure activities and the number of free days. Additionally, The number of free days and leisure activities did not affect life adaptability or satisfaction, against the prediction.
