According to the nature of data, descriptive statistic and inferential statistics (regression & correlation) was used. In this research 51.6% respondents were male followed by females which are 47.9%. Results show that, female respondents are more inclined towards a university brand name and location as compare to males. On the side, males are more concerned about the universities’ market value and faculty (teachers) as the major traits while choosing a particular university as compare to females. For universities facilities both the gender male and females have not shown much enthusiasm and interest. Moreover, program offered by the university, fee structure and extracurricular activities are not the primary focus for students (both male and females) as one of the university traits. Further the results demonstrate that, academic facilities and service attitude are highly correlated and have a great impact on student’s loyalty. Moreover, campus environment having a weaker correlation also impact’s the student’s loyalty.

This research responded the questions raised and welcomed a wide range of discussions for the university management to work closely for student’s welfare to enhance and maintain the student’s loyalty. The study is restricted within three HEC institutes of Karachi city only due to limited time frame and financial resources available.
