PROGRAM SERVICES

Early intervention techniques utilized for participant retention and success.

Academic Planning - Counselors/Advisors are available to help participants identify a program that is appropriate for them.  The counselors/advisors develop an educational action plan for each participant in the program (including projected graduation date).  Pre-registration appointments are highly recommended.

Academic Monitoring - TRiO Project Success counselors/advisors update education plans every semester.  Class schedules are reviewed at that time.  If an advisor has a concern about what classes a participant is taking, the participant will be notified.  Progress reports are sent to instructors each semester to monitor participant progress.

Career Exploration - Career counseling is available for participants who need assistance in selecting a course of study.

FAFSA/Scholarship Application Assistance - Staff members can direct students to people who can help with submission of the FAFSA form.  TRiO Project Success counselors/advisors can provide feedback for financial aid suspension appeal letters.  They can also help participants organize the application packet for scholarships, provide feedback for essays and write letters of recommendation.

Personal Counseling - TRiO Project Success offers short-term personal counseling.  Long-term counseling may be referred to outside agencies. 

Community Referrals - Staff members can help participants find resources in the community.
