They are from different school such as Computing, Education and Modern Language, Multimedia Technology and Communication as well as Quantitative Science. The involvement of students from school such as Computing and Multimedia Technology and Communication are important in order to see their intention to become entrepreneurship as nowadays technopreneur are increasingly needed for the development of our country. Besides, the common demographic such as gender and ethnic also will be determined and compared with previous findings. The findings show no significant different for gender but there is significant difference for ethnicity toward entrepreneurial inclination. 320 out of 350 questionnaires have been collected with the response rate of 92%. Descriptive statistics, frequency, independent t-test, correlation as well as one way ANOVA have been used to analyze the data. This study had proved that family support, role model and financial support influence the entrepreneurial inclination among non-business students.
