About Us
We Are driven by your success
TRIO Student Support Services (SSS/SSS STEM), a federally funded TRIO program, assists students through intensive and intentional advising. TRIO SSS/SSS STEM serves first-generation college students (neither parent has a four-year college degree) and students whose families have limited income. The program exists to guide them through their entire college career.
Only 420 students are members of the TRIO SSS and SSS STEM programs, meaning students get individualized attention from an advisor from the time they enter the program until graduation. Services are free and students may qualify for TRIO SSS/SSS STEM scholarships.
UW Oshkosh has two TRIO SSS programs: the traditional TRIO SSS program serves students in all majors and TRIO SSS STEM focuses on science, technology, engineering, math and health sciences fields. Both TRIO SSS and SSS STEM programs are funded through grants from the U.S. Department of Education.
