The study adopted the quantitative approach (Descriptive correlational). The sample of the study comprised 287 male and female students who were purposively recruited from the eighth, ninth and tenth grades. Both the psychological well-being and aspiration level scales were administered to the study participants. The results of the study revealed that there is a significant positive correlation between psychological well-being and level of aspiration among the students of King Abdullah II for excellence, and a high level of psychological well-being and aspiration. In addition, the results showed that there were statistically significant differences in the level of psychological well-being referred to gender variable in favor of females, and no statistically significant differences in the level of psychologicalwell-being referred to grade variable.
