Scholarships Services for Transfer And Re-Entry Students (STARS)
    Services for Transfer and Re-Entry Students (STARS), STARS is a program for transfer students who are entering UCSC from a community college, for undergraduate and graduate re-entry students who have had a substantial break in their college education, for all students who are also parents, and for military veterans.

    STARS provides the extra academic and personal support you may need to benefit fully from your education at UCSC whether you are a full- or part-time student. These services include orientations for new students, academic seminars and study skill workshops, tutorial services, informal academic advising, drop-in assistance, social and cultural programs, scholarships, newsletters, and student lounges with computer workstations. STARS also acts as a clearinghouse for information about campus and community resources for UCSC’s large transfer and re-entry student populations, and the STARS staff advocates on behalf of these students campuswide.
