1. Introduction
The success of College in increasing student satisfaction will be able to
maintain the number of new-student applicants, so that the college will continue
growing and developing sustainably1,2
. College as one of service organizations
is currently experiencing a fundamental change. This change is not only due to
the rapid development of science, technology and information, but also because
of the changes in society's expectations of the role of colleges in the future3.
Such activity can run if the institution has the resources as follows: (1)
students4,5,6
6 (2) reputation7,8
; (3) adequate facilities and infrastructure9,10
; (4)
funding11,12,13,14
. Theoretically, customer or student loyalty is influenced by
several factors such as learning, quality of service and satisfaction15,16

Colleges need to be aware of the importance of the service quality of education.
A good service quality is able to improve customer satisfaction17
. This means
that the ability of colleges to provide a fast and proper service to students will
increase students’ satisfaction in STIE Enam Enam Kendari. Overall, the
number of students of STIE Enam Enam Kendari experienced significant
growth from 2012 to 2015. This indicates that the college competition is
increasing more, so that requires STIE Enam Enam Kendari make
improvements in the quality of learning systems and services which are
expected to provide satisfaction and loyalty to students18
.
Not much different from public services of the government officials in other
institutions, STIE Enam Enam Kendari as one of the colleges in Kendari, still
has weaknesses. It is characterized by various complaints from students, such as
about the learning system reflected in the lesson plan; the lecturer does not
provide SAP and GBPP before starting the course, about the teaching quality of
the lecturer which is reflected on the inconsistency of material that was
delivered with SAP that has been prepared. In addition, the student complaint
was also about the service quality of STIE Enam Enam Kendari, such as the
inadequate lecture rooms, lecturers Performance which is less convincing and
professionalism of administrative staffs in providing services to students.
Based on the above empirical phenomena, it is interesting to conduct further
investigation. Therefore, this study takes an object at STIE Enam Enam Kendari
as one of the private colleges that have responsibilities in providing services to
students and lecturers optimally.
The research conducted by Yassyir Maulana, Murti Astuti, Surachman in 2012
with the research variables are Servqual, Satisfaction, Student Loyalty, used the
analysis method of Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), which uses
estimation in determining the sample. The estimation in this study uses the ML
or Maximum Likelihood. The result of research shows that there is significant
difference between the variables of servqual and student satisfaction, there is a
significant difference between the variables of student satisfaction and student
loyalty, there is no significant difference between the variable of SERVQUAL
and the student loyalty. Then, Ade Titi Nifita in 2011, with the variables of
trust, satisfaction and loyalty, the method of analysis used was multiple linear
regression method, assumption test consisting of multicollinearity test and
autocorrelation test, F test and t test. Based on the results of F test, it is known
that F value showed 21.309 with a significance level of F = 0.000 or smaller
than 0.05. This may imply that simultaneously or jointly X1 = trust and X2 =
satisfaction significantly affect the student loyalty and partially each variable
has a significant effect on student loyalty. Meanwhile, the satisfaction variable

has the most dominant influence on loyalty compared to other variables with the
t was 3.646. Furthermore, research conducted by Indah Dwi Prasetyaningrum in
2009, with the research variables were learning quality and service quality in
relation to student satisfaction and loyalty of Undaris Ungaran. This research
was conducted by survey method. The data was obtained by distributing
questionnaires to 170 respondents. The population in this study was students of
Undaris Ungaran starting from the academic year of 2004/2005 until the
academic year of 2008/2009, as many as 1144 students. The samples taken were
decided to be 150 students. The sampling method used was purposive sampling
which is the technique of sampling with a certain considerations. Data were
analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with AMOS 4.0 with
maximum likelihood estimation.
2. Method
This research is explanatory research19
. Explanatory research is a research that
describes a causal relationship among variables which affect the hypothesis20
. In
this study, there are minimum two variables that are connected, and this
research functions to explain, predict and control a symptom. Therefore, this
study will explain the interactive relationship among variables to be studied and
how far the relationship affects each other. The population in this study were
students who use the services of STIE Enam Enam Kendari starting from
academic year of 2010/2011 until 2014/2015 consisting of 1114 students,
whereby the number of samples was adjusted using an analysis tool being used
that was Structural Equation Model (SEM)21
. This study consists of four
variables and 15 indicators. The number of samples was taken from eight times
the estimated number of parameters. Thus, the sample size used was 120
respondents22,23,24
.
3. Findings and Discussion

The underlying logic of thinking is the loyalty of students to STIE Enam Enam
Kendari will be achieved when students feel proud to be a student of STIE
Enam Enam Kendari, the charged cost is appropriate with the benefits obtained,
the proper and the fastness of service, and the appropriate concentration that is
needed by the students.
The results of this study confirm some of the results of empirical research which
concluded that customer satisfaction gives positive and significant impact on
customer loyalty to the products or companies25
. The Increase of customer
satisfaction is in line with the increase of customer loyalty to the company. On
the basis of these ideas, if the management party of STIE EnamEnamKendari
wants to increase the loyalty of the students, one of the aspects that should be
improved is the student satisfaction. One of the reasons why customers move
from one service company to another service company is because the customers
are not satisfied with the quality26
of the service or with the way of dealing with
the problems. When customers are not satisfied with what they got or when they
have problems, they might respond by exiting and switching to other service
providers, voice (trying to solve the problem by expressing complaints), being
loyal (still being with their providers and hoping something better will happen
in the future)27
..
Today, student satisfaction becomes one of the main keys for the college to
continue to grow and develop because if students were not getting a good
service then the students will simply move to other colleges are considered able
to provide better service28
. Student satisfaction means a manifestation of
strategies and tactics of a company (college) to face the competitors' strategies
and tactics29,30,31
29-31. Building student loyalty is a strategic policy for the
company, because the company views the student loyalty is part of the
company's strategy to face the competitors and connect the company to the

market (consumers). Student loyalty is needed as an element in a competitive
marketing strategy32,33
. In particular, to face the increasingly-competitive
market conditions, companies often rely their future on customer loyalty. The
important provide of references as the basis of this study. This study
investigated the relationship between student satisfaction and loyalty. The
achieved result becomes an important justification as the reference that the
relationship between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty is positive.
Therefore, for most companies, the customer loyalty is often identified as a
guarantee for short-term and long term benefits for the company34,35
.
Based on the result of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA)36
, it was noted that
the biggest indicator in reflecting the student satisfaction is the quality of
service based on students' perceptions about the appropriateness and the
fastness of the service of education personnel of STIE Enam Enam Kendari. In
this step, the fastness and appropriateness in handling the students are crucial.
Dissatisfaction can be even greater if students feel that their needs are not
serviced properly. This condition can make them have bad prejudice and are
hurt so that it gives impact on the student loyalty. Besides, the aspect that
should be improved in realizing customer satisfaction based on priority is to do
some of the following: the cost of education should match the quality provided.
By paying the high cost of education, the college is expected to give parallel
quality in the learning process. The pride of being a student of STIE Enam
Enam Kendari also needs to be improved by involving students in academic
decision making in STIE Enam Enam Kendari, so that later the students feel
being part of a big family of STIE Enam Enam Kendari. The creation of
customer satisfaction can provide several benefits, including having harmonious
relationship between the company and customers, providing a good basis for the
re-purchase and for the building of customer loyalty, as well as creating word-
of-mouth recommendation that benefits the company
