Abstract

This research delves into the pivotal process of student decision-making within higher learning institutions, focusing on the dynamic interplay of marketing mix services encompassing product, price, promotion, and place. Through an analysis of alumni and current student cohorts at a prominent university, this study empirically demonstrates the profound influence exerted by product quality, strategic promotion, and favorable institutional positioning on students' selection choices. Notably, while price emerges as a comparatively weaker determinant, the collective impact of product, place, and promotion proves instrumental in shaping prospective students' decisions. These findings illuminate the complex landscape of student preferences, offering valuable insights for crafting targeted marketing strategies that effectively guide students' educational trajectories.
