Subscriptions

A paid subscription is required to earn a STARS Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum rating. When you’re ready to take the next step and avail of the full range of benefits that come with paid participation, you can purchase or renew a STARS subscription at any time on the Payments page of AASHE Accounts (note that, in order to purchase a STARS subscription, your institution must already have registered for STARS and your individual account must be designated at the STARS Liaison or a STARS Billing Contact).

Subscription Fees

The table below outlines the fees for a one-year STARS subscription for AASHE members and non-members. Each subscription includes the ability to submit one scored report for a STARS rating. To encourage ongoing participation, subscription renewals are available at a 40 percent discount when paid within 90 days of the previous subscription end date.

NOTE: The STARS Reporting Tool can still be used without purchasing a subscription. A subscription is only required if you wish to submit a report for a rating.

* The renewal discount is available when you purchase a new subscription within 90 days of the previous subscription end date.

Discounts

To help ensure that full participation is accessible to all institutions, AASHE offers discounts of 80% to institutions located in low-income economies and 60% to institutions located in middle-income economies (as defined by the World Bank). These discounts will be automatically applied when purchasing a STARS subscription.

In addition, institutions facing financial hardship may apply for a one time pay what you can discount.
