SSSP provides a variety of services to enhance academic performance and ultimately increase the retention and graduation rates of low-income, first-generation college students and those with disabilities. SSSP also aims to foster an institutional climate supportive of the success of program participants.

Each year the program staff plans a variety of exciting activities that are designed to enhance students' personal and professional development. Many of our students study internationally, participate in internships, and
get leadership experience with the assistance of the SSSP. Based on program statistics, most students who actively participate in the SSSP maintain good academic standing and graduate in a reasonable time frame. We hope that all of our participants will take full advantage of what the SSSP has to offer. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask a member of our staff. We are here to serve you.

Sincerely, SSSP Staff
