Aim: Studies on the harm caused to education by earthquakes are limited. How education continues after earthquakes is important. This study aimed to determine the relationship between midwifery students' attitudes toward e-learning and their future anxiety after 2023 earthquakes in Türkiye. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional research design and was conducted from the 9 to 22 March 2023 with 1026 students from across Türkiye. Data were collected using the online survey method. The data were collected with the Personal Information Form, the E-Learning Attitude Scale University Students Form and the Future Anxiety in University Students Scale. Results: The total score on the E-Learning Attitude Scale was 33.53±13.78, and the total score on the Future Anxiety Scale was 62.17±13.95. There was a significant negative relationship between the mean scores for these two scales. Conclusion: The study showed that positive attitudes toward e-learning were low and future anxiety was high. It was found that as attitudes toward e-learning increased positively, future anxiety decreased.
