Broward college english as second language student support services project

Broward College received a $272,364 Project Grant award effective September 1, 2025, through August 31, 2026, from the Office of Postsecondary Education to support the English as Second Language Student Support Services Project. Under the TRIO Student Support Services Program (CFDA 84.042), this funding provides comprehensive supportive services to disadvantaged college students, with particular focus on English as Second Language learners at the institution's Fort Lauderdale, Florida campus. The program is designed to enhance student retention and completion rates while facilitating successful academic progression and transfer pathways from two-year to four-year institutions.

The services delivered through this award include academic support, financial literacy training, tutoring, and other student success initiatives specifically tailored to low-income, first-generation, and non-native English-speaking students. These supportive services aim to increase the postsecondary educational potential and outcomes of disadvantaged student populations at Broward College, consistent with the broader TRIO Student Support Services Program objectives of improving educational access and affordability for underrepresented communities.
