Trio student success program

The Office of Postsecondary Education awarded San Francisco Community College District a Project Grant of $484,996 under the TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) Program (CFDA 84.042) effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026. This grant funds comprehensive supportive services designed to enhance academic outcomes for disadvantaged college students, including low-income, first-generation, and students with disabilities enrolled at the San Francisco Community College District. The program delivers targeted interventions focused on increasing student retention and graduation rates, improving financial literacy, and facilitating successful transfer pathways from two-year to four-year institutions.

The TRIO SSS Program at San Francisco Community College District provides coordinated academic advising, tutoring, mentoring, and financial literacy support to strengthen students' potential for successfully completing their postsecondary education. As a minority institution and Hispanic-Serving Institution, the district leverages this funding to address the distinct educational needs of its diverse student population while advancing institutional goals of increased completion and transfer rates in postsecondary education.
