Introduction: This study was conducted to examine the quality of life and its sub-dimensions of university students according to their physical activity status and participation in sports for all federation (HIS) activities. Methodology: Accordingly, 801 students (male=505, and female=296) from different universities in Turkey and Kazakhstan ) were included in the study. Quality of life levels and sub-dimensions (general health, physical health, psychological health, social relations, environmental relations) were analyzed. World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (WHOQOL) was used to determine the quality of life of the participants. Results: Accordingly, physical health status (t=2.422, p=.016), social relations (t=2.063, p=.039), environmental relations (t=3.759, p<.001), and WHOQOL results (t=3.175, p=.002) were significantly higher in men. In addition, as the participants' grade level increased, their general health status, psychological health, social relations, environmental relations, and WHOQOL scores generally increased (p<0.05). WHOQOL scores and sub-dimensions were significantly higher in those who practiced sports competitively and for recreational purposes (p<0.05). There was a significant difference in all parameters except physical health status in individuals participating in HIS activities (p<0.05). Conclusions: As a result, it is thought that popularizing sports among university youth is an important factor for these individuals to have a healthy quality of life.
