Student support services program at seton hall university

Seton Hall University received a $272,364 Project Grant award effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026, from the Office of Postsecondary Education to support the Student Support Services (SSS) Program (CFDA 84.042). The program delivers comprehensive supportive services at the university's South Orange, New Jersey campus designed to enhance retention, academic success, and completion rates for disadvantaged college students, including low-income students, first-generation college attendees, and students with disabilities.

Under this federal grant, Seton Hall University will provide services aimed at increasing postsecondary education access and completion while improving students' academic potential and financial literacy. The program supports student transfer pathways from two-year to four-year institutions and facilitates overall student success in higher education. As a continuation award under the TRIO Student Support Services Program, the institution must demonstrate substantial progress toward meeting project objectives and continue to meet established grant conditions to support continuation funding beyond the initial project year.
