Implementation of socio- political and socio-economic reforms in the state necessitates the search for practical ways of organizing the successful socialization of student youth, creating the appropriate conditions for self -actualization, formation of social activity. It is substantiated that creative self -realization of the personality is impossible without its social activity in important spheres of vital activity. Qualitative indicators of social activity of students are determined by curiosity, creative interest, emotionality, enthusiasm, aspiration for creative achievements, aspiration for leadership, aspiration for a high external evaluation, sense of responsibility and responsibility, personal significance of creative activity, aspiration for self -education, self -education of creative abilities. The forms and methods of socio-pedagogical work on the development of social activity of student youth of the university have been experimentally checked (organization of volunteer activity, development of social projects, work in the organs of student self -government, development and implementation of social-pedagogical projects, involvement of students in creative activity).The qualitative indicators of social activity of students were determined by us: curiosity, creative interest, emotionality, enthusiasm, aspiration for creative achievements, aspiration for leadership, aspiration for obtaining a high external evaluation, a sense of responsibility and responsibility, personal significance of creative activity, a desire for self-education, self-education of creative abilities. Social activity we understand as the quality of personality, which manifests itself in various types of socially significant activities. Socially significant activities served as a connecting link between the theoretical training of future social educators and their independent work in social care institutions and facilitated the acquisition of socially valuable experience by students. In today's Ukraine, the actual problem is the lack of gifted, creative and socially active workers – high level specialists in various fields. This poses a problem for educators to find practical ways of organizing the successful socialization of student youth, creating the appropriate condition s for self -actualization, and the formation of social activity. Creative self-realization of personality is impossible without its social activity in important spheres of life. That is why the formation of social activity of youth is one of the most important tasks of social pedagogy, including social education and social education in general. To quantitative indicators of social activity of students can be attributed: their high overall activity, high performance, the presence of motivation to succeed in the activity, high level of claims and adequate self -esteem. All of them were diagnosed with appropriate techniques. It is established that the development of social activity of young people promotes their attraction to socially significant activities, namely: work in the organs of student self-government; volunteer activ ity; socio-pedagogical design; activity in artistic groups, club of fun and smart.
