This is significant because as higher education opportunities in Turkey are spread all over the country many students do not have equal access to ICT tools. Additionally, it was determined that there is a significant relationship between income level, parents' education level, where a student lives and ICT ownership. As a result of the survey given to 2,206 respondents, it showed that private university students have more access to ICTs than public university students, - this difference does not depend only on income level. The variables are fixed broadband subscription, ownership of smart TV and paid smart TV applications, a personal computer, and paid mobile applications for ICT access. This paper discusses the problem through the example of university students in Turkey. The inequality that can be seen in the level of access to ICT tools among university students shows that there is more to be said about this problem in the field of higher education. Although access to ICT tools is improving worldwide, the first-level digital divide is still one of the major problems for university students.
