<![CDATA[Abstrak : Salah satu Sekolah Dasar Islam Terpadu di kota Semarang yang menjadi objek penelitian, selama masa pandemic covid-19 mengalami penurunan dalam jumlah penerimaan siswa dibandingkan tahun sebelumnya. Maka dilakukanlah penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui seberapa besar pengaruh kualitas layanan dan reputasi sekolah tersebut baik secara langsung ataupun tidak langsung dengan peran mediasi kepercayaan dari orang tua siswa yang berdampak terhadap efektifitas penggunaan komunikasi WOM (Word of Mouth) pada orang tua siswa. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan populasi orang tua siswa kelas 2 sampai kelas 6 yang telah merasakan kualitas layanan selama satu tahun. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan proportionate stratified random sampling dengan jumlah sampel 179 orang. Metode analisis data menggunakan regresi linier berganda dan uji sobel. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kesediaan orang tua siswa menyebarkan informasi melalui WOM (Word of Mouth) dipengaruhi mediasi kepercayaan dari orang tua siswa dan secara langsung dengan reputasi sekolah. Kualitas layanan belum mampu mempengaruhi secara langsung WOM, sehingga dalam penelitian ini peran kepercayaan orang tua siswa sangatlah penting dalam mempengaruhi jumlah penerimaan siswa di sekolah tersebut.Abstract: One of the Integrated Islamic Elementary Schools in the city of Semarang which became the object of research, during the covid-19 pandemic, there was a decrease in the number of student admissions compared to the previous year.
