TRIO Student Support Services Program (SSSP) 

The TRIO Student Support Services Program (SSSP) is committed to providing support and information that validates each student's experience and nurtures a sense of participation, belonging and empowerment. Through mentorship, academic programs, one-to-one counseling/ advising, referrals to campus resources and social/ cultural programming, we strive to maximize your involvement and success in the campus academic community. In addition to assisting students through to graduation, TRIO SSSP helps motivate and inform students to utilize services to enhance their preparation for the job market and/or graduate and professional school admission.

TRIO SSSP is for students who are low-income, first-generation college students and/or students with disabilities.
