Student Support Services Program (SSS) is a federally funded program that provides opportunities for academic development, assists students with basic college requirements, and serves to motivate students towards the successful completion of their postsecondary education.  The SSS program may also provide grand aid to current SSS participants who are receiving Federal Pell Grants.
