Ah yes, I should have read your initial post longer. You definitely don't want to use an object for your property for the select. use the id of the matTeacher like I've shown and you should be all set.

In my JSP, I'm using this property like this:
<html:select property="matTeacher" >
<c:set var="CURTEACHER" value="${student.matTeacher.teacherId}" />
<c:forEach var="teacher" items="${TEACHERMAT}" varStatus="status">
<option value="${teacher.teacherId}" <c:if test="${teacher.teacherId == CURTEACHER}">selected</c:if>>
<c:out value="${teacher.firstName}" /> <c:out value="${teacher.lastName}" />
</option>
</c:forEach>
</html:select>
property="matTeacher". The property in your form "matTeacher" should be a number type (int, Integer, etc) or a String. Are you sure it's nott an Object of type Teacher? You probably want this...
<html:select property="student.matTeacher.teacherId" >
<c:forEach var="teacher" items="${TEACHERMAT}" varStatus="status">
<option value="${teacher.teacherId}">
<c:out value="${teacher.firstName}" /> <c:out value="${teacher.lastName}" />
</option>
</c:forEach>
</html:select>
You don't need the "if" test. If the id of property="student.matTeacher.teacherId" equals the teacherId, the tag takes care of setting this for you.
My guess is your property for the select is wrong. You want some kind of "id" for that property that you can deal with.
