dc.description.abstractWorldwide, university students fall in the youth group which is prone to unattended sexual risk behaviors that may lead to unwanted pregnancies. With respect to their exposure to family planning aspects, female students at the State University of Zanzibar were anticipated to make use of the family planning facilities available at the university. Simple random sampling was used to obtain 86 female university students involved in the study. Strong belief in Islam religion has been the factor caused almost a half of female university students not to be engaged in sexual intercourse. The majority of students who used contraceptives decided to use tradition contraceptives and not modern contraceptives. Almost all the students who made use of contraceptives had consent of their partners. To make use of contraceptives successful, countrywide promotion to contraceptives should target both males and females. Still a research is required to find out factors that led to reduced adolescent pregnancies in Zanzibar.
