To develop a better understanding of the indigenous entrepreneurial attitude of students which can lead to a more appropriate, culturally sensitive entrepreneurship education, training, and development programs that reflect an economic development approach desired by Indigenous communities. The respondents of this study are students of the College of Business, Accountancy, and Entrepreneurship (CBEA) of Kalinga State University. A survey questionnaire was used as the primary data gathering instrument. Findings showed that the students registered low EAO towards entrepreneurship with no statistical differences and that indigenous students recorded lower EAO with no statistical difference in all the dimensions. Thus the researcher recommends a review of the teaching strategies for all the programs; it should prioritize and include activities that will encourage students to develop their Entrepreneurial Attitude Orientations by putting up a mini-enterprise managed by the students, by sending them to local and international trade fairs and exhibits and make available regular mentoring and coaching programs from local and successful entrepreneurs.
