Student Support Services is funded by the U.S. Department of Education and provides support services to first generation college students, low-income college students, and students with disabilities persuing a four year degree. Help is also provided through:

• Individual and group tutoring in Math and English.
• Assistance completing financial aid, scholarship, and loan applications.
• Career counseling and occupational information.
• Instructional materials and supplies available for loan.
• Graduate school counseling and campus visitations.
• Study groups and informal support networks.
• Workshops on personal and academic issues.
• Cultural activities.

These are just a few of the comments our former students have made:

"Student Support Services staff were very friendly. When things weren't going well I could always count on them to make me feel more confident."

"I believe that student camaraderie may be the single greatest asset this program has.  We are all in this together and after a few years we become family."

"The tutoring was great help! I have met many new friends! The resources available are WONDERFUL (i.e. computers, books, supplies)."

"Staff helped me hang in there when I was about ready to give up and quit trying."

"They let me know when I was doing poorly in a class so I could get help."
