TRiO Student Support Services

TRiO/Student Support Services works with eligible, admitted students to provide comprehensive academic support.  Nationwide, students who are part of a TRiO program tend to have higher GPAs and earn more credits than those who are not involved with TRiO. The TRiO program at BMCC offers a student computer lab, professional and peer tutoring, advising and four-year transfer assistance, workshops on study strategies and time management, book and calculator loans, snacks, and a place to meet other BMCC students.

To qualify, you must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident and enrolled in a degree program at the Pendleton campus of Blue Mountain Community College. In addition, you must meet at least one of the following criteria: be a first-generation student (neither parent graduated with a bachelor’s degree), have low income, or have a documented disability. For more information or to learn if you qualify, drop by the TRiO offices on the Pendleton campus in Morrow Hall, Room M141, or call 278-5853.
