The purpose of this study is to analyse the satisfaction level and psychological status of senior students of "Silver College," or seniors' college. For the analysis, questionnaire survey was conducted to senior students of Silver Colleges of B and K University in Busan from May 1 through 31, 2013. The analysis methods used are SPSS Win 18.0 program on analysis of frequency, one-way analysis of variance, a correlation analysis, simple regression analysis and multiple regression analysis, with analysis of actual proof for 5% significance level. The result of analysis indicates that the senior students' satisfaction level rose and serious physical symptoms improved after taking silver college programs from before. This study is significant in that it provides theoretical grounds for increasing the number of silver colleges with professional and socially-renowned professors as faculty, and developing further programs and policies for the solution of aggravating physical and mental problems more and more senior people are faced with in this fast aging society.
