STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES
Helping low-income, first-generation and disabled college students stay in college and graduate.

Students who succeed in college learn to advocate for themselves. They learn to become leaders. They aspire to academic and personal excellence.
These are all skills you can learn, and the Student Support Services program is here to help you learn them. Through academic, cultural, career-oriented and social activities, you will explore your personal talents and abilities.
Along the way, you will gain confidence, develop a vision for your life, and set the highest standards for yourself. You’ll develop a sense of community and social responsibility while you learn to use all the campus resources available to you.
Student Support Services is a federally funded TRIO program and is free of charge to eligible students.
