MSUN TRIO Student Support Services
We are proud to partner with the Department of Education to offer TRIO Student Support
Services (SSS) at Montana State University-Northern. MSUN TRIO SSS Scholars receive
unsurpassed support from a committed team of staff, student tutors and mentors from
the moment they enroll through graduation.
We are here to help you succeed!
Our goal is to provide you with the support and skills needed to remain in college
and complete a degree program by creating a personalized Academic Success and Career
Plan. This plan, combined with the effort of our team and your personal motivation
to succeed, will help guide your first days as a TRIO SSS Scholar through graduation.
SSS provides its participants with tutoring, mentoring, advising, disability services,
a private computer lab, and a quiet study area. Our center also comes fully stocked
with each years required textbooks for participants to utilize on site. You will always
have a friendly, safe place to come visit, study, or relax in SSS!
