Congratulations to the Student Support Services Program


I am pleased to announce that the Student Support Services Program has received a federally funded TRIO grant totaling 1.1 million dollars over a four year cycle. This is the 26th year of funding the College has received through the outstanding work of Patricia Kennedy, Director, Academic Support Services and the Student Support Services team of Jean Parker, Karen Frantz, Joshua Maldonado and Darlene Verdouw, and MCC’s grants office.

The Student Support Services Program provides academic assistance through tutoring, counseling and advising to targeted first-generation college students enrolled in the Transitional Studies and English for Speakers of Other Languages programs. The program provides the out of the classroom resources needed to help students make program changes into degree granting programs at MCC, graduate and transfer to 4 year institutions.
