Student Support Services
The Student Support Services (SSS) program, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, is an academic support program. The goals of the program are to increase retention and graduation rates and to facilitate the participant's transition from one level of higher education to the next. The five-member staff at Student Support Services provides services as needed by the student in the areas of academic, financial, or personal advising; tutoring; basic study skills instruction; admission assistance and financial aid for securing enrollment at a four-year institution; and career development information. Student Support Services serves all students regardless of Race, Religion, Color, Sex, National Origin, Age, or Handicap.
