Dedicated support for completing your academic journey

CROP Students in Immokalee

The TRIO and Outreach Programs provide opportunities for students to advance their academic and personal growth, gain financial responsibility, explore careers and understand college requirements. These activities motivate students toward successfully completing their education.

Participants must meet eligibility requirements to qualify for these programs, which are very competitive and have limited openings each year. The Office of TRIO and Outreach Programs is in McTarnaghan Hall, Room 202.
