Hoping children be successful in future life, parents could give expectations and suggestions to their college choice. Facing parents’ expectations, these students could give up their inclination and choose those “prestige”, “employment force” majors.

The sample size was 1,203, all of the participants came from north of Taiwan. Results found that (1) the reasons why students follow parents’ suggestions, feedback to parents are at most, following are experiences references, and the least are avoiding conflicts; (2) compare to those who didn’t follow parents’ suggestions, those who did have higher learning satisfaction; (3) the more the students follow parents’ suggestions for avoiding conflicts, the less they would put what they’ve learned to use; (4) the more the students follow parents’ suggestions for experiences references, the more they would put what they’ve learned to use.
