Greetings from UTSA Student Support Services!
Thank you for your interest in the TRIO Student Support Services (SSS). We can only serve
144 students in our program. Due to graduation and students moving on, we currently have
room for approximately 40 new students this fall. During summer orientation we will be
holding small group introductory sessions at 2:30 pm in our office Main Building (MB)
0.312 (see attached map) for you to learn more about the great things we do and to fill
out a few of the necessary forms. You will need to complete an application to be
considered: http://p20.utsa.edu/programs/trio_student_support_services/. I have attached
an eligibility form that I will need you to fill out and bring to that meeting (please
note signatures needed).
TRIO Student Support Services is dedicated to the success of University of Texas at San
Antonio Students from day one through graduation and beyond, for eligible students. Going
to college is a transition and sometimes it can be challenging. This is where TRIO Student
Supportive Services comes in! We provide students with resources and tools such as
professional, academic, financial and personal success workshops, individualized tutoring,
access to computers especially for TRIO students, as well as prepare you for graduate
school. http://p20.utsa.edu/programs/trio_student_support_services/
The TRIO staff is here to assist YOU in maximizing your educational experience to succeed
in earning your bachelor's degree!
* We provide you with individual advisor interactions to assist you in graduating
on time
* We customize support services for participants who are eligible
* Learn about career opportunities
* Attend cultural and academic trips and events
* Graduate School preparation
* Scholarship Assistance
* Help with Financial Aid and FAFSA
* Make new friends who have similar goals
Being part of SSS is a privilege!
After orientation is over on August 1st we will decide if you will be one of the 40
students that we will fit you into our program, so look for an email the second week of
August. If accepted, your attendance will be required at our Camp TRiO on the Saturday
before college begins, August 19 from 10-2:00, so make note of that date in your
calendar... You will be provided with a college student planner, a bag of goodies, and
have fun while learning a lot of useful information and make a few new friends.
If you have any questions about our program please call 210-458-7510. I look forward to
seeing you during your orientation at 3:00 pm!
