Even though many studies on the relationship between personality and intention to venture into business have been conducted, they produced mixed results regarding the relationship of both variables. Due to this issue, the present study was conducted to examine the relationship between personality and entrepreneurial intention among potential female entrepreneurs. Data was collected by using questionnaires distributed to 52 female entrepreneur candidates in Kuala Nerus who actively joined a series of entrepreneurial courses organized by the Terengganu State Government through purposive sampling. The data was analyzed using a simple linear regression model performed by Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS-22). The result revealed that personality could only explain its effect on entrepreneurial intention among potential female entrepreneurs in Kuala Nerus by 6.3%, which shows that personality is not a major factor that determines one’s entrepreneurial intention. Further, this study found that personality has a significant positive relationship with the entrepreneurial intention.
