Background: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and Pap smear testing can significantly protect against cervical cancer. Objectives: to assess Egyptian female university students' knowledge and health beliefs about these preventive services. Methods: An online survey was conducted on 1148 participants during July and August 2023 using an Arabic, self-administrated, close-ended questionnaire covering factors influencing the adoption of cervical Cancer preventive behaviors using the Health Belief Model (HBM). Results: only 2% of participants had received the HPV vaccine, while none had undergone Pap smear screening. They had a total knowledge score of 53.8%, only 62.7% considered themselves at risk for cervical cancer, and only 50% perceived the severity of cervical cancer and the benefits of preventive methods. Perceived barriers to obtaining an HPV vaccine and a Pap smear test were 53% versus 42.1%. A common barrier to getting both services were unknown service places (3.4± 0.9, 50% for HPV vaccination versus 3.2± 0.5, 37% for Pap smear testing). The cues to obtain both services were after doctor advice (62%), when becoming mandatory (53%), and after family advice (53%). The self-efficacy to obtain the HPV vaccine and a Pap smear test were 42.7% versus 37.8%, respectively. Conclusion: Lack of knowledge and low scores of all HBM constructs except perceived barriers regarding cervical cancer preventive services among Egyptian female university students should guide effective interventions such as marketing these services through physicians, incorporating HPV vaccination into national immunization programs, and Pap smear screening into the reproductive health program.
