Student Support Services

Student Support Services is a TRIO program funded by the U.S. Department of Education, and is one of the more than 800 similar programs nationwide whose purpose is to assist undergraduate students toward graduation from college.

What we do depends in part on what you need to keep yourself enrolled, advised, counseled, funded and successful as an Eastern student. Our services provide a mix of support designed to help you enhance your academic and personal development. The staff will work with you on an individual or small group basis to provide the following:

• Tutoring: Group study halls and individual tutoring available.
• Counseling: A counselor is on staff to address academic and career planning.
• Workshops: One hour workshops are offered throughout the semester over various topics to help ensure college success.
• Transfer: Unsure about transferring? We set up campus tours each semester.
• Culture: Each month at least one cultural trip/event is offered (ballet, museum, leadership conference...)

SCHEDULE AVAILABLE

Participants are expected to make contact at least twice a semester. Of course, we welcome and encourage you to come in as often as you need or wish to.
