Specifically, SJSU Athletics hopes to further the academic development of our student athletes and enhance their chances for future success by providing them with the following programs and resources:

The S.T.A.R. Center
The Student-Athlete Tutorial & Academic Resource Center provides specialized tutorial assistance outside of the classroom for student-athletes who may need additional help in their studies. The S.T.A.R. Center also provides controlled study table sessions that allows our student-athletes to study in a quiet, comfortable and commotion-free environment.
