This study examined the predictors associated with career uncertainty among Bachelor of Science in Accounting Information Systems (BSAIS) students enrolled in selected Local Universities and Colleges (LUCs) in Laguna. Career uncertainty has become a growing concern among undergraduate students as they navigate the transition from academic training to professional practice, particularly in specialized fields shaped by rapid technological and industry changes. The study sought to determine the level of career uncertainty among BSAIS students relative to career choices, perceived job market stability, and fear of making the wrong decision. It further investigated how personal predictors and information affect career uncertainty. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, utilizing a structured survey questionnaire administered to BSAIS students across three selected LUCs in Laguna. The gathered data were statistically treated to measure levels of uncertainty and identify significant relationships between predictors and career uncertainty. Findings revealed that students experience varying degrees of uncertainty influenced by both personal and information factors. Based on the results, the study proposed targeted programs and interventions to address the identified predictors, emphasizing enhanced career guidance services, structured career planning activities, and strengthened linkages with industry partners to improve students’ career readiness. The outcomes of this research provide valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and career counselors in designing strategies that support students in building clearer, more confident career pathways.
