Abstract

This research is motivated by the unachieved Vocational High School policy that allows its students to continue their studies to tertiary institutions, which is 20%. The factors obtained at the time of the interview were the students who were still confused in determining their career decisions after graduating from school related to self-belief or efficacy, beside the financial problems related to family factors. This article investigates the influence of students’ self-efficacy and their family’s social status on their interest in continuing their study to higher education. Data was withdrawn from an online survey to students of one of the best vocational high schools in Bandung, Indonesia. The quantitative data was analyzed using by program of SPSS version. 25 for windows. This research reveals that 1) self-efficacy has a positive and significant effect on students’ interest in continuing education to higher education, 2) family’s social status has a positive and significant effect on students’ interest in continuing education to higher education 3) self-efficacy and family’s social status together contributed to the variable of interest to continue their studies to higher education by 38.7%. The remaining is explained by other variables.
