The model used TAM and Big Five models for analyzing personality and adoption of students. In this study, survey was conducted among two faculties that used E-Learning in high and low stage. These faculties were Faculty of Computing (FC) and Faculty of Health Science and Biomedical Engineering (FHSBE). The result of study shows that three factors of personality which analyze by Big Five model was accepted and two external factors like Perceived Enjoyment and Computer Self- Efficacy from TAM model can have influence to adoption a new technology like Mobile learning .
