What are the graduation rates for students at Antelope Valley Community College District?

The reported overall graduation rate for Antelope Valley College is 34% in IPEDS 2024-25 data. It rose from a reported 31% the preceding year. The figure describes a defined completion cohort, not the likelihood that any individual student will graduate.

Federal graduation-rate measures generally follow first-time, full-time, degree- or certificate-seeking students through 150% of a credential's normal completion time - often three years for a two-year associate degree. That definition does not fully represent students who start part time, enter as transfers, take longer, or leave after transferring successfully to another institution. Applicants comparing colleges should examine transfer outcomes and longer-term completion measures alongside this rate.

What is the earning potential for graduates at Antelope Valley Community College District?

A dependable one-year post-completion earnings figure is not established for Antelope Valley College's vehicle maintenance and repair technology field in the cited College Scorecard measure. It would therefore be misleading to assign that program a typical starting salary.

Even when an earnings measure is published, its meaning depends on the population covered, the year after attendance or completion, and whether the statistic is a median or an average. Earnings can reflect local labor markets, prior work experience, additional education, and whether a student works full time. For career decisions, students should consider program costs, licensing requirements, job openings, and transfer plans as well as any eventual earnings data.
