AB  - This study was grounded on a theoretical framework that integrates Bourdieu’sconcept of  sociocultural  capital with Blustein’s Relational Theory of  Working,which recognizes that social structures and interpersonal connections shapecareer trajectories. The  main objective of  this  research was to  investigate therelationship between students’ sociocultural  backgrounds and their careerresources, as  well  as  the  role  of  grit  in  this  relationship. To  accomplish this, across-sectional study was conducted on  2353 Portuguese Higher Educationstudents. Multiple Correspondence Analysis was applied to  define students’sociocultural profiles and structural equation  modeling was used to  test theresearch hypothesis. The  results evidenced that students’ sociocultural profilesdid  not  present a  direct effect on  the  environment factor of  career resources,however an indirect effect — via grit — was found. For the other three careerresources (knowledge and skills, motivation, and career management behaviors)students’ sociocultural profiles presented both direct and indirect effects (via grit).This interaction underscores that, while students’ backgrounds shape careerresources, grit  can help  bridge disparities. This study expands the  existingliterature by incorporating the impact of sociocultural factors and grit, advocatingfor higher education institutions to recognize diverse backgrounds and promotegrit-enhancing initiatives. Such an  approach could help mitigate socioeconomicdisparities in  higher education, offering insights into educational policies thatfoster equitable career development.
