Descriptive analysis, test of reliability, factors analysis, and regression analysis were used in this study. The findings of the study show that three factors were produced by factor analysis as follows; family and relatives, friends and opinion leaders. These three factors were used in regression analysis; results show that family and relatives, friends and opinion leaders influence the students’ selection of private universities
