In Student Support Services/TRIO, participants receive intensive advising, tutoring, and mentoring in addition to academic improvement services, transfer trips, cultural trips, orientation to college, leadership activities, and technology loans. The purpose of the program is to help eligible RCC students improve academic performance, graduate from Richland, and transfer to a four-year institution. The Student Support Services/TRIO program is funded in its entirety through a grant from the U.S. Department of Education that provides educational support to low-income, first generation students (neither parent has a bachelor's degree) and to students with physical or learning disabilities. All applications must include documentation of income and, if applicable, documentation of disibility. Applicants receive free services upon successfully completing an invited interview.
