Purposive sampling is used to select 104 respondents to participate in the study. Data is analyzed using multiple linear regression with applying for IBM SPSS 21 program. The results reveal that gender and internal locus of control have a positive effect on students' ethical perception. Love of money further has a negative effect on students' ethical perception.
