This study used a modified Student Academic Support Scale (SASS; Thompson & Mazer, 2009) and modified Academic buoyancy Scale (ABS; Martin & Marsh, 2008), correlated using Spearman’s correlation test. The results show that academic buoyancy has a significant positive relationship with esteem support (r = 0.168; p = 0.011), motivational support (r = 0.212; p = 0.001) and venting support (r = 0.158; p = 0.017), but doesn’t have relationship with informational support (r = 0.105; p = 0.111). Researcher suggests to do further research about contribution students' academic support to academic buoyancy. It is recommended to develop a mentoring program for students that facilitates mutual helping, care and motivating between students in the academic.
