Student Access & Success

REAL TAKES THE PATHWAY TO SUCCESS.

The Office of Student Access & Success (SAS) creates pathways that connect under-represented students to quality post-secondary education. Through partnerships with local community organizations, support from our success coaches, and personal/professional development programming, we improve students’ learning and ensure their success.

SAS programs empower first-generation college students, FAFSA recipients, as well as former foster youth and homeless students.

Participants engage in learning experiences that increase students’ college retention and graduation rates. Program benefits include:

• Targeted scholarship/funding opportunities • Access to success coaching • Priority course registration • Professional development experiences

WE INVITE YOU TO EXPLORE OUR PROGRAMS.

The Student Support Services (SSS) program is a Federal TRiO program that provides opportunities for academic development, assistance with basic college requirements, and motivates students towards the successful completion of their bachelor’s degree.

The Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement program is a Federal TRiO program designed to prepare students from low income, first-generation, and traditionally under-represented groups for doctoral studies.

Fostering Panther Pride (FPP) offers tailored academic and support services to former foster youth and students experiencing homelessness. The program’s primary goal is to assist these students in their transition to FIU, their retention and graduation, and their pursuit of securing employment or graduate studies upon earning their bachelor’s degree.
