About Us
The Federal TRiO Programs (TRiO) are Federal outreach and student services programs designed to identify and provide services for potential students. Daytona State College offers two TRIO programs (Talent Search and Student Support Services), which are targeted to serve and assist students (such as students with disabilities) to progress through the academic pipeline from middle school to post-secondary education.
TRiO Student Support Services (SSS)
Serving DSC college students
The goal of the Student Support Services program is to increase the college retention
and graduation rates of its participants and help students make the transition from
one level of higher education to the next. Eligible students may receive (among other
services) personal and academic career counseling, career guidance, instruction, mentoring,
and tutoring.
TRiO Talent Search (TS)
Serving 6-12 grade students
The goal of Talent Search is to increase the number of youth to complete high school
and enroll in and complete their postsecondary education. The Talent Search program
identifies and assists individuals who have the potential to succeed in higher education.
The program provides academic, career, and financial counseling to its participants
and encourages them to graduate from high school and continue on to and complete their
postsecondary education.
