This study found that adversity quotient and self-efficacy had a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial intention. The novelty of this research is that when students have the desire to become entrepreneurs after finishing college, the behavior to continue to motivate others in the team so they do not give up must continue to be a priority, and the habit of facing challenges in any form must be a concern and priority. If this behavior can be maintained and sustainable, then entrepreneurial interest will increase and, in the future, this will become entrepreneurial behavior.
