TRIO Programs

TRIO Student Support Services (SSS)

TRIO is a federally funded program that works with 280 students each year. This gives the TRIO staff the time to get to know you and find out how we can help. The most important thing that TRIO does is Process Education, teaching students how to be successful in the college environment. There are many excellent faculty here who teach specific academic material, but TRIO teaches students how to make it through college!

TRIO Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC)

The TRIO Educational Opportunity Center (EOC) provides counseling and information to qualified individuals who want to want to enter or continue college, trade school, or a high school completion program. EOC also provides services to improve the financial and economic literacy of participants. We help people with financial aid, scholarships, basic financial planning skills, and the application process.
