The aim of this study is to develop a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine the "Future Anxiety of University Students". The sample of the study consisted of 365 students in the Faculty of Health Sciences of a Foundation University giving education in Istanbul. As a data collection tool, an item pool of 37 items was created in line with the literature, and validity and reliability studies of the scale were carried out. Data were analyzed by using SPSS 21 and AMOS package programs. Internal consistency and test-retest were used to evaluate reliability. Exploratory factor analysis with SPSS program; Confirmatory factor analysis was also performed via the AMOS program. As a result of the analysis, the "Future Anxiety in University Students" scale, consisting of 19 items of 5-point Likert type, and gathered under two factors of "Future Fear" and "Despair of the Future", was developed. The total variance rate explained by the scale is 63.50% and the internal consistency coefficient is 0.91. For the test-retest, the scale was applied to the same group with an interval of two weeks and the correlation coefficient was found to be significant. A two-factor structure was confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. The Future Anxiety Scale, which was devoloped as a result of the research, was detected to be a valid and reliable measurement tool in determining the future anxiety levels of university students.
