Student Support Services

Our Purpose

Student Support Services aims to increase the college retention and graduation rates of participants and help students transition from one level of higher education to the next. SSS provides opportunities for academic development, assists students with basic college requirements, and motivates students toward completing their post-secondary education.

SSS participants must be either first-generation college students (neither parent has completed a 4-year college degree) and/or meet income guidelines determined by the U.S. Department of Education to be eligible for admittance to the program.
