Abstract

Introduction: Defined as a combination of passion, perseverance, and long-term commitment, grit is the sustained effort to achieve difficult goals over time.1,2 Nursing students have grit, which continues to develop as they enter the profession. However, nearly 20% of students do not complete their studies, despite academic and pastoral support.3 Interventions designed to develop mindsets, such as the six-week ‘Grow your Grit’ program4, better equip students for the rigors of academia. However, limited insights regarding the granular issues that drive dropping out exist.
