Glenville state university's student support services project

Glenville State University received a $286,079 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), effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026. The award funds a comprehensive support services initiative designed to enhance postsecondary educational outcomes for disadvantaged students, including low-income students, first-generation college students, and students with disabilities.

Under this grant, Glenville State University will deliver supportive services aimed at increasing student retention and graduation rates, facilitating transfers from two-year to four-year institutions, and improving academic potential and financial literacy among the student population served. The program is designed to enhance the potential for disadvantaged college students to successfully complete their postsecondary education programs. The project will be implemented at the university's main campus in Glenville, West Virginia, with continuation awards available on an annual basis contingent upon demonstrated progress toward program objectives.
