We are committed to ensuring every student has access to the resources necessary to achieve their academic and personal goals. Many of our students face financial challenges that can impede their success. Through your generosity, we can bridge those gaps and provide critical support services that make all the difference.

This priority enhances tuition assistance and strengthens initiatives to expand emergency assistance programs. Unanticipated emergencies, such as job loss, illness of self or a family member, high medical or utility bills, or home or vehicle accidents, can disrupt a student’s coursework. Whether it’s helping with textbooks, meals, transportation, or unexpected life situations, Student Access & Success will provide essential support that will empower students to stay focused on their education. We believe providing equitable resources will attract, enroll, and retain a diverse, dynamic student population that will ultimately further our region’s ability to thrive.
