Based on the results of the factor analysis, the author typologized the types of leisure activities of students and determines the degree of dependence of the intensity of each of them from the dedicated ascriptive statuses.

The least influential social status of the selected us is the place of residence prior to admission to the University, which acts as the output indicator under social control. The author concludes that the economic capital of the family plays a dual role: on the one hand, limits the intensity of some forms of leisure activities that require additional financial costs, with the other actualizes the practice of demonstrative conspicuous consumption. In addition, the results of the study will allow a substantial role in the volume of family's cultural capital in the intensification culturally rich and creative practices of the students.
