The present study attempted to verify the mediating effect of social capital in the relationship between cultural capital and academic achievement for university students. Toward this end, the study included survey data collected from 270 students from national universities in the analysis. The collected data was analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 22.0 statistical programs. The results of the present study can be summarized as follows. First, there was a significant positive correlation between the overall variables of cultural capital, social capital, and academic achievement. In particular, the greatest correlation was exhibited between social capital and academic achievement with regard to the relationship between dependent variables. Second, social capital appeared to fully mediate the relationship between cultural capital and academic achievement. This implies that students can increase their academic achievement by increasing their level of social capital, which is slightly more fluid than cultural capital in an embodied state, which is acquired while being naturally exposed to such a culture since childhood.
