Abstract: The main aim of this study is to examine the relationship between education spending, educational preferences and income in terms of the individuals of different status. In the study, quantitative research method was adopted to measure education expenditures and income level, and data were obtained through a survey. The sample consists of people who have different status such as academic and administrative staff and workers. The findings gathered in the fieldwork were analysed by using the OLS and Probit regression models. According to the results of this study, the education level of families, their social status and their income level determine their educational preferences significantly. Parents' monthly income and their chances of sending their children to special education institutions were found to be in the same direction.
