Abstract: Abstract The high level of unemployment in Indonesia, particularly among college graduates, highlights the need to increase entrepreneurial intentions among students to help create jobs. This study examines the influence of entrepreneurial education and entrepreneurial mindset on entrepreneurial intention with mediating variable in form of self-efficacy. A descriptive method was used with 250 students as respondents from entrepreneurial-focused universities in West Jakarta. Data was collected through online and offline questionnaires that applied the purposive sampling technique. Data was then analyzed using Smart PLS 4.1.0.8 software to perform PLS-SEM. The results have proven that entrepreneurial education significantly influences entrepreneurial mindset. Furthermore, both entrepreneurial education and mindset positively and significantly influence self-efficacy. However, entrepreneurial education and mindset have no direct influence on entrepreneurial intention. This study reveals that self-efficacy mediates the influence of entrepreneurial education and mindset toward entrepreneurial intention.
