Resumen: High rate of student dropout, low academic performance, repeated semesters and subjects are the main issues that led us to conduct this research which focuses on high school counseling. The objective of the research is to ask some students from the Northern Technical University of Ibarra, Ecuador to evaluate the process of high school counseling. These students are first semester students belonging to the majors of Automotive Maintenance Engineering, Electrical Maintenance Engineering and Textile Engineering. The research is descriptive and quantitative. It is based on a 32 questions survey about self-knowledge, information, decision making and students' satisfaction with their major. It was submitted to a population of 108 students; 78 people of the male gender, 29 of the female gender and 1 person belonging to another gender. The analyze showed that the process of high school counseling did not have a significant impact on their choice of university major. Nevertheless, most participants appeared to be satisfied with the major they were enrolled in
