The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on university students have been discussed in many studies. However, there are few studies on undergraduate tourism students. The fact that the tourism sector is among the sectors most affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, the postponement of internships and sectoral uncertainty have greatly affected tourism students. Examining the impacts of Covid-19 pandemic on tourism undergraduate students, can lead to inferences and suggestions for the future. The research was conducted face to face with 153 tourism faculty students. Data analysis was done with SPSS 22.0and t test and ANOVA tests were conducted. It was determined that students could adapt to academic changes, the quality of life showed a statistically significant difference in terms of psycho-social dimensions (p<0.05), while the psychological resilience dimension did not show a statistically significant difference (p>0.05). It is observed that Tourism Faculty students managed their academic and psycho-social well-being above average.
