We explored the impact of students ‘social position at school on the educational trajectories. Longitudinal data from 2011 to 2015 was used in the research. Our empirical findings suggest that social well-being has a positive effect on expected highest level of education, on students ‘assessment of chances of enrolling in a university, on admission to the university. Bulling at school has indirect effect on these indicators of educational trajectories. Besides, social well-being and bulling influences the choice of a branch in a university or college.
