A cross-sectional research design with quantitative questionnaire approach was conducted. The study used convenience sampling technique to select 159 participants who provided information on the environmental support, environmental influence and entrepreneurial intention of Nigerian students in UUM. A multiple regression analysis technique was employed for the data analysis. The result of the analysis revealed that neither environmental support nor environmental influence is significantly related to entrepreneurial intention of Nigerian students in UUM.
