In the 4.0 era, secondary schools need to prepare students to make wise decisions in terms of choosing a college major that suits their future career goals. This research was a quantitative method with data collection techniques through observation and questionnaires to 263 class XII students of SMAN 1 Sambas. Data on graduates who worked not according to the study program showed an increase from 2017 to 2021, namely 60% to 80%. From the results of factor analysis, 7 variables formed 2 factors, namely internal environmental factors with a coefficient value of 61.06% consisting of parents, peers, personality, self-potential, and external environmental factors with a coefficient value of 12.51% consisting of opportunities for work, social environment, and future expectations. Internal environmental factors with a coefficient of 61.06% were the dominant factors that affected student interest in choosing college majors. Thus, the seven variables affected student interest in choosing majors in higher education in the 4.0 era.
