Abstract. Based on data from a sociological study by the authors “Student Family of Russia”, conducted in 2022 in 12 regions of Russia, the article examines the attitude of student youth to having children. The authors define the reproductive potential of student families as the difference between existing reproductive intentions and the birth rate in the current economic and social conditions. The study showed the presence of different strategies of student youth in having children. In general, the proportion of married students with children is very small, which is determined by the value orientations and attitudes of young people towards professional and family careers. The article identifies possible family and demographic policy measures that will increase the birth rate among student families.
