Quantitative data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using SPSS 23 and AMOS 23. EFA revealed a similar structure from previous studies and this study. The CFA approach verified the questionnaire concerning Factors Affecting Entrepreneurial Intention was satisfying for the context of students at Jambi University. This work concludes that factors Affecting Entrepreneurial Intention of Indonesian students has a four-factor structure.
