About D.E.E.P.

San Bernardino Valley College’s Dedicated Engagement to Empower Part-timers (D.E.E.P) program is committed to successfully transitioning part-time, first-year and returning students into college. It is the aim of the program to assist in removing barriers through various support services to effectively promote college integration, retention, graduation, and transfer for underserviced students.
Through the offering of dedicated counseling, workshops, financial assistance, and classroom curriculum, we strive to create a holistic environment where students feel welcomed and supported at Valley College. Through participating in DEEP, students will be prepared to navigate the college process and have a clear understanding of how to proceed toward their intended goals while at Valley College and beyond.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Anti-Racism:
We welcome and embrace diversity at Valley College and continue to do so with the students served in the D.E.E.P program.  Our students bring with them varying skills and a wealth of life experiences that contribute and enhance the culture and learning environment at the college. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve and engage in helping students gain autonomy to make decisions that are best for themselves, their families, and community at large.
Student Area Outcome #1: Students participating in the DEEP program will be able to increase their knowledge and understanding of academic and vocational programs and student services.

Student Area Outcome #2: Students will develop tools to assist them in navigating their first year at Valley College through meeting with program counselors and workshops.

Student Area Outcome #3: Have a comprehensive student educational plan developed that outlines the courses necessary for students to transfer to a 4-year institution and/or earn an associate degree or certificate.
