As the research representative of this study, I conducted student and parent questionnaire surveys in the city Z in the east of Shandong province in China. Then I gave publications about the findings including effects of information concerning college tuition and student assistance on students’ educational expectations. In this city, Grade Twelve students’ economic information possession is influenced by family background more strongly than Grade Nine students. Though it has no effect on Grade Nine students’ choice of a career and educational expectations, economic information possession has significant effect on Grade Twelve students’ desire whether they want to go to graduate school.
