Aim of the study to assess internet addiction and its relation to time management skills among nursing students. Study design: A descriptive correlational design was utilized.

Tools of data collection: Two tools were used to collect the data: Tool (I) Internet Addiction Questionnaire, Tool (II) Time Management Skills Questionnaire. Results: Nearly to half (48.5%) of nursing students had moderate risk internet use, and more than half (50.9%) of nursing students had high level of time management skills.
