Resilience is a significant topic in university education, it has gained relevance in recent years due to the contingency experienced during and after the confinement by Covid-19. The foregoing led to a search within the competencies acquired at this time, those that could be mobilized or updated. This research aimed to determine if resilience is related to the development of favorable traits and competitive tools in university students. The research approach was quantitative of the survey and correlational type. The information was obtained through the Survey of Resilience, Favorable Traits and Competitive Tools (E-RRHC). The sample was 6 712 undergraduate students from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa. The statistical analysis of the instrument was performed with Spearman's correlation. Among the most significant results we can point out that university students had greater resilience through the development of favorable traits and competitive tools. In most of the items there is a moderate positive or strong positive correlation. It is reflected that the resilient process that the students of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa endured during and after the pandemic gave them the opportunity to mature and that is that the worst fall is when the human being learns to fly. A student with academic resilience is characterized by being a responsible, meticulous, constant person who works through school failures and looks for options to be better every day.
