In this paper, we analyze the diffusion of academic performance across different types of student social networks. We analyze the spread of academic achievements within two different social networks of first-year undergraduate students. It was shown that achievements spread well within friendship networks, while other types of ties (e.g. online relationships) do not serve as channels for the performance transmission. In this paper, we examine the diffusion of academic achievements in two distinct social networks: friendship and study assistance. We analyze the longitudinal data on friendship and study assistance networks and GPA of a first-year student cohort of the Economics department in one of the leading Russian universities in 2013-2014 academic year. In this paper we explore the academic performance diffusion through two social networks of different natures: friendship and study assistance.	./cache/cord-308249-es948mux.txt	./txt/cord-308249-es948mux.txt
