The present study was conducted to identify factors affecting the educational justice in Islamic Azad University. The method of study is applied in terms of objective and it is descriptive-survey in terms of data collection, and quantitative in terms of data type. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect the initial information. Population of this study included professors of Islamic Azad University, which 40 of them were selected as sample of study using convenient sampling method. Delphi technique based university professors’ view was used to identify the variables affecting educational justice, and factor analysis was used to analyze the data for extracting the indices of questionnaire. Investigations revealed that the impact of each of the factors affecting the educational justice in Islamic Azad University is not equal, so the level of impact of these factors should be assessed and these factors should be ranked accordingly. Identification of the factors affecting educational justice in the university by means of three-branched model allows managers to identify harms in each of the structural, underlying, and behavioral factors in order to implement the educational justice properly. Twenty and six important factors to implement educational justice were identified in the university using a questionnaire and Delphi technique. After identification of the factors, they were classified in three classes. The considered model had appropriate fit, as RMSEA was obtained 0.085 and the ratio of Chi square to degree of freedom (χ2 / df) was obtained 3.7. Based on the model obtained from confirmatory factor analysis using LISREL software, 26 indices of the questionnaire were classified in three factors, including structural, behavioral factors, and underlying factors.
