Academic Catalog

Student Support Services (TRIO) Office

Unlike student support at Snow in general, Student Support Services is a federally funded program. Eligibility requires U.S. citizenship and the intention of receiving an associate degree and transferring to a four-year university. Other qualifiers include income status (guidelines similar to Pell Grant eligibility), first-generation status (neither parent having a bachelor's or higher degree), or a certified learning or physical disability.
 

Courses offered through Student Support Services are tuition‑free to students who qualify for this federally funded program. These courses are designed to strengthen competency in English usage (grammar, writing and verbal communication), mathematics, and study skills. Courses numbered under 1000 count as regular hours for receiving financial aid, scholarships, and full‑time student status. They do not count as hours towards graduation or honors classification. In addition to courses, Student Support Services offer academic advising, tutoring, and transfer assistance that includes visits to in-state universities.

Persons interested in enrolling in this program should contact Student Support Services in the Greenwood Student Center, room 250, or call (435) 283‑7390. Potential participants can also apply online at https://www.snow.edu/offices/sss/index.html
