Mctc trio SSS

Maysville Community and Technical College (MCTC) received a $286,109 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education under the TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) Program (CFDA 84.042) for the period September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2026. The award supports the delivery of comprehensive student support services designed to enhance postsecondary educational outcomes for disadvantaged students, including low-income, first-generation, and students with disabilities enrolled at the institution.

Under this grant, MCTC provides targeted supportive services aimed at increasing student retention and graduation rates, improving academic performance and financial literacy, and facilitating student transfers from two-year to four-year institutions. The SSS Program at MCTC represents part of the institution's broader commitment to addressing regional educational equity and student success initiatives within Kentucky's higher education landscape. The award is structured as a one-year project grant typical of SSS awards, with continuation based on demonstrated progress toward program objectives and the availability of federal funds.
