Student support services-regular-morehead state university

Morehead State University received a $408,934 Project Grant award effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026, from the Office of Postsecondary Education to support the TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) Program (CFDA 84.042). The program delivers comprehensive supportive services designed to enhance postsecondary educational outcomes for disadvantaged students, including low-income, first-generation, and students with disabilities enrolled at the university. Core services include academic support, financial literacy instruction, and student success initiatives aimed at increasing retention and graduation rates while facilitating transfers from two-year to four-year institutions.

The Student Support Services Program represents a federal initiative to improve access to and completion of postsecondary education for underrepresented student populations. Through this award, Morehead State University will implement evidence-based support mechanisms that enhance student academic potential and overall college success. The one-year project period aligns with the standard funding cycle for SSS awards, which are typically renewed on an annual basis subject to demonstrated progress toward established program objectives and continued availability of federal funds.
