The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between proactive coping and indicators of academic achievement and academic flourishing. The study was made on a sample of 115 students from different faculties in the Republic of Croatia. 16 (13,9%) male participants and 99 (86,1%) female participants were a part of this study. The age of the participants was between 19 and 29, with average age of 23 (M = 22,51, with SD = 1,894). The study was conducted through an online questionnaire, made in the application Google Forms and was shared on social network Facebook in various student groups and among students individually. The results indicate that there is a statistically significant correlation, with positive validity, r = 0,241 and low level of correlation between proactive coping and academic achievement. The correlation between proactive coping and academic flourishing is also statistically significant, with positive validity, r = 0,216 and low level of correlation. The results confirm both hypothesis about positive correlation of proactive coping with academic achievement and academic flourishing. The students who implement proactive way of behavior and coping will have better academic achievement and will flourish more at the faculty. It is recommended to encourage and promote proactivity among students for the purpose of satisfaction at the faculty, but also in life in general.
