Welcome to TRIO Student Support Services!
What is TRIO?
TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) is a federally funded program that provides personalized academic advising and encouragement to students who are low-income, or first generation to college (neither parent graduated from 4-Year College), or individuals who have a documented disability.
TRIO assigns each student an academic advisor who will help guide them throughout their academic career at NSCC. Their advisor will work with them to develop a plan for academic success that, if they work hard and stay on track, will lead to graduation and continued success at a 4-year college or their chosen career.
