Sažetak

In this paper we analyse the undergraduate and postgraduate higher education participation determinants in Slovenia. Using a micro-level probit analysis we find the most important statistically significant higher education participation determinants in Slovenia, and the most important differences between the determinants on the undergraduate and on the postgraduate level. We use the Slovenian statistical Household Budget Surveys (HBS) data for the reference years from 1998 to 2005. The HBS covers private households in Slovenia with the basic socio and demographic data for the household members observed within the surveys, data on income, assets and final consumption. In the probit analysis we focus on the determinants of the undergraduate and postgraduate higher education participation separately for different age groups. Based on the results of the three probit models we find six different determinants of the undergraduate higher education participation. The first two most important determinants are the availability of internet access in a household and education of parents. On the postgraduate level of education we also find six important determinants of higher education participation, with the first most important being the availability of information-communication technology, followed by the personal income.
