TRIO Programs

TRIO Programs are federally funded initiatives designed to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds in higher education. They provide academic advising, tutoring, mentoring, and financial literacy to help students succeed and complete college. The goal is to promote access and retention for individuals who face barriers to education, such as low-income families, first-generation college students, and those with disabilities. By offering these services, TRIO Programs aim to improve upward mobility and ensure more diverse, talented individuals can achieve their educational and career goals.
