Betz (1996) and Vocational Outcome Expectations (VOE) scale developed by Ellen Hawley Mc Whirter (2000) were used to collect information. Descriptive statistics were conducted to analyse the data, and inferential statistics were computed to test the hypothesis. Data was analysed using Multivariate multiple regression analysis, Independent sample t-test and Pearson correlation analysis. The study's findings provide valuable information about the impact of family support on career decision making self-efficacy and outcome expectations. The study's conclusions were help to advance knowledge of the variables influencing college students' professional choices.
