The study also aimed to examine the differentiation status of university students in terms of various variables of digital literacy levels. In addition, in the study, the digital literacy levels of university students were determined by gender, type of education (normal/secondary education), higher education level (associate / undergraduate/graduate), higher education program they are enrolled in, grade point average, class, average monthly income, social network with the most time spent. It is also aimed to examine the differentiation status in terms of the variables of average internet usage time during the day, the preferred tool for internet use, and the educational status of the parents. In this study, the survey model, which isone of the quantitative patterns, was used. The population of the study consisted of a total of 17,006 students, 11,500 undergraduate and 5,506 associate degree students, studying in 11 faculties, 4 colleges and 9 vocational colleges in the 2021- 2022 academic year at a state university located in the Eastern Anatolia Region. The sample consisted of randomly selected 688 university students. The \"Digital Literacy Scale\" developed by Bayrakçı and Narmanlıoğlu in 2021 was used as a data collection tool. In the analysis process, nonparametric techniques were used since the data could not meet the assumptions of parametric techniques. As a result of the study, it was seen that the digital literacy levels of university students were low. In addition, it was concluded that there were statistically significant differences between university students' grade point averages, the social network they spend the most time on, the preferred tool in internet use, and the educational status of  \ntheir parents and their digital literacy levels. Various suggestions were developed considering the results of the study.  \nKeywords: Digital Literacy, Literacy, University Students  \nA. Introduction  \nIt is in question that the software and hardware elements that develop with technology affect the work to be done more effectively, widespread and useful according to the areas of use. Especially in the processes of accessing, organizing, evaluating and employing information, various digital tools and applications can be easily utilized for academic purposes or meeting daily needs (Castells, 2008) . It is known that in the 21st century, a significant portion of children in developed and developing countries are acquainted with various digital tools and applications before meeting with their schools and teachers (Allen, 2016; Dinlemez, 2021) . In this regard, one of the features expected from individuals in the 21st century is also the use of digital elements (computer, tablet, smart phone, digital recording devices, interactive smart boards and blogging with applications such as wiki, web 2.0, social media tools) effectively and efficiently in learning processes (accessing information, receiving information-organizing-storing-adaptingusing-creating) (Kuru, 2019) . However, as of 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic, which has spread rapidly all over the world, has made it necessary to use digital elements more in education and training processes. In terms of the current situation, it can be stated that digital literacy comes first among the features expected from students in the learningteaching processes integrated with digital applications.  \nWhen the relevant literature is examined, it ca","cbCaifqBmJw9VnGc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifqBmJw9VnGc","pdf",337731,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# A.
