This study aimed at analyzing the procrastination of IAIN Curup students in completing their thesis and growing responsibility with reality counseling. This study used a mixed methods research design. There were two instruments used in the process. The participants consisted of 46 volunteer students (XIV semester) who experienced procrastination in completing their thesis spread across 6 study programs at IAIN Curup. Data collection instruments were a questionnaire, and an in-depth interview form. The obtained data were analyzed based on three stages of grounded analysis: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The research results revealed that the highest cause was 97.1% anxiety about not being able to complete the thesis on time; 74.3% estimated that it did not match reality; and 62.9% found it difficult to find a supervisor for thesis guidance. In addition, it was found out that completing a thesis takes awareness and responsibility of students and counseling is needed via appropriate steps.
