In order to offer equal opportunities for students with different socioeconomic backgrounds to enter the institutions of higher education, the "Star Plan in Taiwan's College Entrance System" (hereafter referred to as the Stars Project) has been implemented since 2007 by the Ministry of Education. Through this system, candidates could apply for admission by their scores in General Scholastic Ability Test (GSAT) and their grades and ranking at school without further examination. This study investigates the academic performance of those college students who were admitted through the Stars Project during 2007-2010. Document Analysis was used to find out whether these students' academic performance was better or worse than their opposites'. The three main findings are as follows: 1. Although the requirements for the Stars Projects students' admission were lower than those for the students recommended by their schools, the result shows that universities in Taiwan, which properly lowered the admissions requirement for the Stars Projects students, could offer an equal educational opportunity for outstanding students from the remote areas and fulfill the social responsibility and justice. 2. The academic performance of the Stars Project students could be much better than that of the students who were admitted through the other channels. 3. After entering college, the Stars Project students made steady progress in their academic studies semester by semester. In short, this study supports the conclusion that the Stars Project students who graduate from senior high schools in remote areas are potentially talented. With the proper assistance and training offered by their universities, they could perform competently in every respect at university.
