This paper reveals how students' union executives and principal officers of the universities in the South Eastern States of Nigeria perceive the participation of students in decision-making on school fees matters as a factor in goal achievement. The study was a descriptive survey. The population was made up of 36 Principal Officers and 88 Students' Union Executives from nine universities in the study area. Sampling was purposive as all members of the population were used for the study. A researcher-made questionnaire was used for data collection. Results revealed calculated chi-square values of 20.12 and 34.56 respectively, as compared to tabulated chi-square value of 9.24 for 5 degrees of freedom at 0.05 level of significance. However, the frequency counts and percentages of pooled responses of Principal Officers and Students' Union Executives are at variance to each other: while the principal officers disagreed with a percentage of 94.44%, that of the students' union executives was 22.73%. Thus, the disagreement between the two groups could have been the source of conflict which has affected goal achievement. It is recommended among others, that university management should invite the students' leaders prior to the decision-making stage and seek their opinions first before concluding their decisions on new amount of fee to be paid.
