Based on theoretical perspectives of entrepreneurial intention, this study was conducted to find out which factors influence on social entrepreneurial intention and to examine whether the suggested model of entrepreneurial intention is suitable for social enterprise. Research hypotheses were empirically tested with data collected from 118 prep entrepreneurs participating in the social entrepreneurship education and incubating program in Cheongju city of Korea.. The results show that entrepreneur's characteristics variable which was measured by innovativeness of entrepreneurial orientation and education variable have significant influences on social entrepreneurial intention. But prep entrepreneur's perception of social value creation was analysed to have no relation to social entrepreneurial intention. In addition, economic environment with negative terms, supporting policy of government and business resources available as situational factors also were revealed to significantly affect on social entrepreneurial intention. This study suggests that entrepreneurial intention model for social enterprise requires to be used with more attention.
