Our Mission
The mission of TRIO SSS is to create an inclusive community for students to activate success by working together toward excellence.
Mentors, Tutors and our Academic Focus

Being the first to do anything presents unique challenges—like being one of the 1.46 million undergrads nationwide who are first-generation students. Fortunately, being the first doesn’t mean you have to do it alone.

TRIO SSS provides students access to a robust network of peer mentors, scholars and tutors.

Connect with SSS Alumni and continue your TRIO success story beyond your time at Pitt.
