Abstract: This article is a conceptual review of the association between entrepreneurial intentions and student academic performance. The existing literature examines the influence of entrepreneurial intentions on students' academic performance and how personality and institutional culture shape these intentions. The article focuses on a gap in the existing studies by exploring the influence of entrepreneurial intentions on students' academic performance. This topic has yet to be extensively studied in the context of entrepreneurial intention. This article's objective is to expand the interpretation of the link between entrepreneurial aspirations and academic performance, specifically in entrepreneurship intention. The findings of this article recommend that students' entrepreneurial intentions can significantly impact their academic performance. The article also highlights the role of personality and institutional culture in shaping these intentions. By better understanding the factors influencing students' entrepreneurial intentions and academic achievement, policymakers can develop effective strategies to support and encourage entrepreneurship among students.

Keywords: entrepreneurship; entrepreneurial intentions; institutional culture; personality traits; student academic performance.
