antecedent constructs. While others believe that it
is service quality that leads to customer
satisfaction and behavioral intentions (Carrillat
et.al.(2009), Molinari et.al.(2008)). Review of
the literature reveals a lack of consensus on the
definition of satisfaction as a concept with the
service, and therefore, there is no generally
accepted measurement scale for customer
satisfaction in higher education (García, 2009).
Some scholars claim that service quality is an
outcome of the service encounter and that
customer satisfaction is related to prior
expectations and is conceptualized as a response
to service quality in the form of disconfirmation.
Many researchers Morad et.al.(2011) proposed
that customer satisfaction and service quality are
separated and distinct constructs that share a
number of similar qualities. Models of
satisfaction often focus on comparing customer
expectations to the observed service delivered

which are referred to as the service quality gap.
Perceptions of service quality are built on prior
expectations of what should be and will occur
