The objective of this study was to examine the student satisfaction level at grade 11 and grade 12 in Oxford College of Engineering and Management (OCEM). Quantitative methodology approach along with the survey study was applied in this study. The survey questionnaire was used as research instrument to collect data in this study. The target population was four hundred and fourty and the sampled population was two hundred and four. There were two hundred and four (N= 204) respondents where the boy’s population was 55.88 % and girl’s population was 41.11 %. The response rate was 94.22%.

The results show that lifelong academic skills, standard and qualified lecturers, student centered activities, strong faculty management, proactice faculty support, better college environment and facilities, punctuality of the transfort facilities, strong security environment, better lab facilities and advanced library facilities, advanced physical facilities and college infrastructure facilities were extracted as the key subscales of the analysis section. The results show that there was significant relationship between existing students’ recommendation to enrol and student centered activities, advanced lab and library facilities and college facilities at Oxford College of Engineering and Management (OCEM) at Nawalpur of Nepal (p < 0.05, B = -.342, B = -.309. B = -.398). The implications of findings will be beneficial for college principals, school leaders, academicians, Head of Department, college promoters to formulate student centered strategies.
