Welcome to the TRIO Writing Success Project

First-Gen Career Panel

The Writing Success Project is a TRIO Student Support Services program supporting first-generation college students who have financial need, and students with disabilities.

Students in the TRIO WSP receive tutoring in reading and writing, as well as help applying for scholarships, planning their transfer pathway, exploring careers, developing financial literacy, and connecting with an inspiring community of peers.
