Present study aims to investigate students’ attitude to language homework and find if there is a relation between homework completion and academic & TOEFL ITP success, so three subjects have been searched: 1.What is the students’ attitude to language homework?; 2. What is the effect of homework on academic success (students’ success in quizzes and mid-terms)?; 3.What is the effect of homework on TOEFL ITP success? To this end, a research was conducted at TOBB University of Technology and Economics (TOBB ETU) Preparatory School in 2011-2012 academic year. First, to learn about students’ attitude to homework 286 students answered a questionnaire. Additionally, to answer the second and the third questions a linear study was conducted throughout 2011-2012 academic year and 450 students’ homework completion grades (AP grades), quiz and midterm grades, and TOEFL ITP grades have been collected.
