This work explores the determinants behind university enrolment decisions, by modelling the choice of young Italians to attend university or to drop out and enter the labour market, by making use of an agent-based model. Determinants behind this choice include expectations on income gathered through interaction with network, as well as peers’ influence and perceived effort of education.
