Procrastination is one of the serious phenomena observed among learners; it is the habit of putting off their assignments until the last moment of deadline. This behaviour also includes master 2 students during writing their research projects at the end of the academic year; which is noticed to create different outcomes in their results. The objective of this paper is to search what results can levels of procrastination have on academic success for master 2 students at Constantine 1 University. We hypothesize that master 2 students who procrastinate and who do not procrastinate attain different grades in their vivas. We have used a qualitative method to assess the validity of our hypothesis; we conducted a correlation study between the scores obtained from the learners’ procrastination questionnaire, and the scores obtained from learners’ dissertation writing test to study the sum of (r). The procrastination questionnaire aims to divide learners into two sub groups according to their level of procrastination, namely high procrastinators and low procrastinators. Those two sub samples with different measured levels of procrastination are, then, given a test which is a dissertation to write, after that we calculated the coefficient correlation between the two variables. The results show that learners who submit their dissertations very late have the lowest grades, which is not the case for students with low level of procrastination.
