Student Right to Know Completion Rates
In compliance with the Student Right-To-Know (SRTK) Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-542), Los Angeles Valley College makes available its completion and transfer rates to all current and prospective students.
Beginning in Fall 2018, a cohort of all certificate-, degree-, and transfer-seeking first-time, full-time students were tracked over a six-year period*. Their completion and transfer rates are listed above. These rates do not represent the success rates of the entire student population at the College nor do they account for student outcomes occurring after this six-year tracking period.
*Because LAVC now offers a baccalaureate program.

Transfer Rate: A student is included in the Transfer Rate if, within the six-year tracking period, they transferred to another postsecondary institution prior to receiving a certificate or degree or becoming “transfer-prepared” during a eleven semester period, from Spring 2019 to Spring 2024.
