Many people have thought that only an entrepreneur who has entrepreneurial spirit, as a hereditary, that formed by his ancestor. Therefore, some people believe that an entrepreneur does not need a high education degree. As consequences, the scope of entrepreneurship will be understood as the domain of the rich, and poor people are prohibited to become entrepreneur.

However, the fact shows rich and wealth is not the one and only indicator of the entrepreneurship aim. It is a stepping stone to achieve a better life and future. Whether an entrepreneur can be created or not, the role of universities cannot be ignored.
