This study aimed at exploring levels of resiliency among a sample of the University of Jordan students and its relation to symptoms of anxiety and depression. Conner-Davidson resilience scale, state-trait anxiety inventory, and Bick depression inventory-second edition were used to collect the data. The sample consisted of (1106) students from all colleges of the University of Jordan. Results showed moderate level of resilience among the students, a low level of anxiety, and absence of depression among the study sample. Results also indicated significant negative relation between resilience, and anxiety and depression, at α ≤ 0.05. Results showed that there were no significant differences in resilience related to gender, college, and year of study. There also were no significant differences in anxiety and depression related to gender and year of study. However, significant differences were found in anxiety and depression related to college.
