Summary/Abstract: It is more and more frequently believed that senility is time of great possibilities, reflection over completeness of life, as well as it is a chance for further development, learning and experiencing the world. During this time people can supplement their education and gain new skills. The attempts to include elderly people into the educational system started the idea of creating the Universities of the Third Age. These are the most popular forms of educating elderly people in recent years. Students of the UTA are people who would like to be independent, self-reliant and active as long as possible. The aim of this study is to present the results of the conducted diagnosis describing ways of active spending free time by elderly people during the classes at the University of the Third Age.
