ABSTRACT
The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of word of mouth (WOM)
marketing on the perceived quality and brand awareness of Nigerian higher education
institution and the subsequent impact on the brand loyalty. The study aimed to get
better insight into factors that contribute to the choice of higher institution to attend
among Nigerian youths. Three hundred and eighty four (384) responses were gathered
through the distribution of questionnaires online to various Nigerian students.
Correlation, linear regression analysis and hypothesis testing was used to test the
relationship between WOM, brand awareness, perceived quality and brand loyalty.
The study found a positive correlation between WOM and perceived quality and brand
awareness. A subsequent positive relationship was also reported between brand
awareness and perceived quality with brand loyalty. The study showed that the
communication that takes place among past students of an higher education institute
and a potential student have the ability to increase the brand awareness and perceived
quality of the school by the potential student. Hence, can help convince the student to
choose the institution as choice destination for their education.
Keywords: Brand Awareness, Brand Loyalty, Perceived Quality, Word of Mouth.
