Viet Nam Therefore, the graduated high school students have more opportunities to continue their study in higher level However, there are many students not satisfy with their choice The central problem investigated in this research is the factors affecting satisfaction from students‟ choice in higher education Based on the previous related research and study, the research try to exam the affect from five factors - students‟ characteristics, the influence of significant people, the career opportunities, the fixed characteristics of the higher education universities and efforts of the own universities to communicate with prospect students - to satisfaction of students‟ choice In doing this, the study has collected data from 257 students in Ho Chi Minh City The research results show that there are six factors affecting satisfaction from students‟ choice (the career opportunities factor is divided into two factors: social occupational structure and career expectation) However, the data just supports five the hypotheses and confirm that five factors contribute significant meaning to the satisfaction from students‟ choice (except the efforts of the universities to communicate with prospect students) Keywords: higher education, satisfaction, students‟ choice, students‟ characteristics, influence of significant people, career expectation LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Chapter INTRODUCTION The first chapter introduces the background of Vietnamese higher education as well as the status of satisfaction from students‟ choice After that, this chapter also raises the management problem and the research objectives to explore the factors affecting satisfaction from students‟ choice in higher education Finally, the scope is proposed and the research structure is presented 1.1 Research background The Vietnamese higher education sector has growth rapidly as the results of the efforts from the Ministry of Education and Training This is the long-term goal of the government to make Vietnam as an excellent education center in Southeast-Asia The growth of the higher education sector can be seen in many aspects, such as: the increase in higher education organizations, the increase in students‟ enrollment, the increase in the government‟s efforts and the increase in the output quality With many policies of liberalization and democratization in the higher education sector introduced by the government, there are more and more higher education universities operating in Vietnam According the statistic results from Ministry of Education and Training (2013), in recent years, the number of universities and colleges in Vietnam has increased continually: 403 in 2010, 414 in 2011, 419 in 2012 and 421 in 2013 So, these universities are facing with a very difficult task to compete the other universities to attract students to choose their programs The increase in the number of higher education organizations can help the high school students have more choice to select the university where they continue their study However, a research from Supporting and Psychological Counseling Center of University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University Hanoi shows that 75.6 percent of students did not satisfy with their choice in higher education universities (Duy Anh, 2013) LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Moreover, the research also presents that there were 32.4 percent of students wanted to rechoose higher education universities The satisfaction from students‟ choice in higher education is very important If the students satisfy with their choice in higher education, they will have more motivation in their study as well as their career in the future This will help students can promote their full ability in work, improve their productivity and labor efficiency In the other hand, if the students not satisfy with their choice, they must spend more time and cost to re-study Therefore, it is very necessary to determine the factors affecting satisfaction from students‟ choice 1.2 Statement of the problem Nowadays, as the requirement of higher education has been increasing rapidly, there are more and more universities with many promotion schemes to increase brand awareness as well as attract more student to choose their programs Therefore, these universities are facing with the fierce competition To be successful in higher education sector, the most important task for these universities is to identify the factors that affect satisfaction from students‟ choice and have right strategies to take advantages from these factors to provide the best solution in education for students as well as increase the universities‟ reputations Besides that, in the reality, there are many students who not determine exactly their choice in higher education According an investigation result from Nguoi lao dong Newspaper (2005), more than 64 percent of students cannot identify their career objects when they choose higher education universities From this article, there are more than 60 percent of students admit that they not receive career orientation when registering to the university Another research from Vietnam National University Hanoi also pointed that 65.4 percent of students cannot know about career objectives (Thanh Ha, 2013) So that, there are 75.6 percent of students not satisfy with their choice in higher education universities Therefore, the aim of this research will determine the factors affect to satisfaction from students‟ choice From this, it will help families, high schools and other education LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com organizations have the right methods to orientate career as well as create the best conditions for the high school students to choose higher education universities With the potential growth of education sector and the competition from higher education universities to increase the satisfaction from students‟ choice and attract more students, the question raised by marketers is that what are key factors affect to satisfaction from students‟ choice From many related theories and research from other nations and some investigation in Vietnamese context, they are five factors: students‟ characteristics, the influence of significant people, the career opportunities, the fixed characteristics of the higher education universities and efforts of the own universities to communicate with prospect students in satisfaction of students‟ choice Based on these studies, this research aims to exam these factors by measuring the relationship between them with the satisfaction from students‟ choice 1.3 Research objectives This research aims to give scholars as well as the managers of the higher education universities in Ho Chi Minh City an answer to the question: What factors affect satisfaction from students‟ choice in higher education? This will find out the effect of students‟ characteristics, the influence of significant people, the career opportunities, the fixed characteristics of the higher education universities and efforts of the own universities to communicate with prospect students in satisfaction of students‟ choice on satisfaction from students‟ choice in higher education To archive the objective, this research will try to investigate: - Whether there is a relationship between students‟ characteristics and satisfaction from students‟ choice or not? If yes, this is the positive or negative correlation - Whether there is a relationship between the influences of significant people and satisfaction from students‟ choice or not? If yes, this is the positive or negative correlation LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com This chapter showed an overview of the research in conclusion section After that, it also presented the implication Finally, it pointed out the limitation while doing the research and suggested some directions for further research 53 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com References Arambewela, Rodney A and Hall, John (2001) Post choice satisfaction among international postgraduate students from Asia studying in Victorian universities ANZMAC Conference 2001 : bridging marketing theory and practice : conference proceedings : Australian and New Zealand Marketing Academy Conference 1st - 5th December 2001 Massey University, 2001 (ISBN: 0473082063) Brassington, F (2006) Principles of Marketing (4th ed.)
