There were many students who did not know their potencies and many others who did not continue to higher education after graduated. These problems were happening until a guidance and counseling teacher used Facebook in her services. She used Facebook to give information and help the students in preparing their career. The Research aimed at investigating the roles of Facebook as a media to provide counseling service and to give useful information on career path for students. The study used qualitative methods with narrative research design. The data were collected through interview. The result of the study, based on success analysis, indicated that guidance and counseling in schools was developing to be more successful as Facebook was involved in providing students’ services. The significant results were implied from the increasing percentage of students who graduated from school that recently achieved 100% and many of them who continue to senior high school. In addition, the Facebook network also helps the alumni to communicate with school counselor who help them to continue their studies to reputable colleges.
