Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji kemampuan self-compassion dan grit dalam memprediksi academic buoyancy pada mahasiswa tingkat akhir. Mahasiswa tingkat akhir menghadapi berbagai tuntutan akademik, seperti penyelesaian tugas akhir, revisi, dan hambatan penelitian, yang menuntut kemampuan beradaptasi dan menghadapi kemunduran akademik sehari-hari. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain survei terhadap 400 mahasiswa tingkat akhir Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta yang dipilih dengan teknik convenience sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan Academic Buoyancy Scale, Self-Compassion Scale, dan Short Grit Scale (Grit-S), kemudian dianalisis dengan regresi linear berganda melalui Jamovi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa self-compassion dan grit secara simultan memprediksi academic buoyancy secara signifikan (F(2, 397) = 533; p < 0,001) dengan R² sebesar 0,729. Secara parsial, self-compassion (β = 0,528; p < 0,001) dan grit (β = 0,340; p < 0,001) merupakan prediktor positif dan signifikan. Sumbangan efektif self-compassion sebesar 44,56%, sedangkan grit sebesar 28,25%, sehingga self-compassion berkontribusi lebih dominan. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa academic buoyancy berkaitan dengan kemampuan merespons diri secara adaptif dan mempertahankan usaha untuk mencapai tujuan akademik. Secara praktis, layanan pendampingan mahasiswa tingkat akhir dapat mengintegrasikan latihan self-compassion dan pengembangan grit. Penggunaan convenience sampling pada satu universitas membatasi generalisasi temuan.
