Objectives The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in academic participation between the low-achievement group and the high-achievement group according to the level of academic achievement, and to identify the relationship between the factors of academic participation and academic achievement. This is to preemptively identify academic participation factors related to academic achievement at the university level and prepare strategies for customized learning support for each learner's characteristics.
 Methods For the purpose of this study, a total of 306 students from A University located in Gyeonggi-do were selected as subjects of study, one with a score of less than 2.5 and those with a score of 4.0 or higher based on the GPA, which is the average GPA of the semester. In addition, cumulative academic data related to academic participation and academic achievement were collected and analyzed. Independent variables The variables for academic participation are attendance score, course credits, number of LMS accesses, number of access to the non-department integrated system, number of times to participate in the non-department program, the number of consultations with advisors, and the number of book loans. Dependent variables are GPA, which is academic achievement, and whether or not academic achievement is low or high. For data analysis, SPSS 28.0 statistical program was used. An independent sample t-test was conducted to compare the difference in academic participation between low-achieving students and high-achieving students, and multiple regression analysis was performed to verify the relationship between academic participation and academic achievement.
 Results According to Research Question 1, the degree of academic participation was found to be statistically significantly higher in the high-achieving group than in the low-achieving group in attendance score, number of credits taken, the number of LMS accesses, the number of access to the non-departmental integrated system, the number of times of participation in the non-departmental program, and the number of consultations with the advisor. According to Research Question 2, It was confirmed that the higher the attendance score, the number of credits taken, and the number of consultations with the advisor, the higher the academic achievement level.
 Conclusions In this study, the fact that the difference in academic participation between the two groups according to the level of academic achievement was identified and the relationship between academic participation and academic achievement was reconfirmed has educational significance as the justification for differentiated educational support for each group and the establishment of evidence. In addition, by recalling the importance of academic data, it can be used as a reference material for educational use of academic data in universities in the future.
