An apparatus and method for a shift control of a vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes a road information obtaining unit that obtains road information of a road on which the vehicle is traveling and traffic information and a front vehicle detection unit that obtains front vehicle information including a speed of a front vehicle. A running state obtaining unit obtains an average running speed of the vehicle and determines whether the vehicle is traveling at a high constant speed based on the road information, the traffic information, and the average running speed. A shift controller adjusts a shift time of a transmission based on the front vehicle information when braking occurs during high constant speed traveling of the vehicle.
