The concept of Grit, a non-cognitive ability that indicates perseverance and passion for long-term goals, has been shown to predict academic resilience. The Current study aimed to evaluate the association of grit with academic resilience of university students and it has also explored the effect of age on the scores of grits. Data was collected from students of University of Swabi. The age range of the sample was from 20 to 30 years and data was collected from 100 undergraduate students by convenient sampling technique. The instruments used in this study were Demographic Information Sheet, Grit Scale and Academic Resilience Scale (ARS-30). The study has shown a positive and significant correlation (r = .379, p).
