This study aims to examine the effect of social capital and entrepreneurial attitude on students’ entrepreneurial interest at a vocational high school. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 144 eleventh-grade students of SMKN 1 Buduran through a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with IBM SPSS Statistics 25. The results show that social capital has a significant positive effect on entrepreneurial interest. Entrepreneurial attitude also significantly influences entrepreneurial interest. Furthermore, social capital and entrepreneurial attitude simultaneously contribute to students’ entrepreneurial interest. These findings confirm the relevance of the Theory of Planned Behavior in explaining entrepreneurial intention in the context of vocational education. The study highlights the importance of strengthening students’ social networks and entrepreneurial attitudes through learning activities and school-based entrepreneurship programs to enhance entrepreneurial interest among vocational students.
