S.T.A.R. (Student Transfer Academic Retention)

Important update regarding the STAR/TRIO program at Antelope Valley College:

After serving students with dedication since 2001, the STAR program will conclude program services on August 31, 2025, as we were not selected for funding in the new federal TRIO grant cycle.

We understand this news may come as a surprise. Federal TRIO programs operate on five-year grant cycles, and each renewal involves a competitive national application process. While we are saddened by this outcome, we are proud of the lasting impact STAR has made on hundreds of students over the past two decades.
