Procrastination can currently be seen as a phenomenon that is closely related to the development of society as a whole. Human society is increasingly focused on performance and results. If, according to the literature, it is assumed that executives are usually successful, it can be concluded that procrastinators are considered unsuccessful. However, this claim may not always be true. The phenomenon of procrastination also appears in the academic sphere, the so-called academic procrastination. Students of universities can usually decide whether to attend lectures. This space for their decision to complete the study time calls for postponement of tasks and duties for later. Therefore, it is possible to discuss whether the university education system has a positive or negative influence on the student's access to the tasks and duties. Therefore the main aim of the article is to identify specific types of tasks that students postpone and characterize the reasons for the type of procrastination. The data was collected by the questionnaire survey (n = 158). Several validated scales were used within the questionnaire, namely Lay's Procrastination Scale for the student population and the judging scale of procrastination for students by Solomon and Rorthblum. The results show that students very often procrastinate thanks written thesis (73 respondents). Totally 42.3% respondents say that it is connected with their hard work and family.
