COPE Student Support Services

The COPE Student Support Services Program is an award-winning program that offers a complete package of direct services to promote retention, graduation, and transfer to four-year institutions.

Am I eligible?

You may qualify if you are a first generation college student (neither parent graduated from a four-year college), meet income guidelines, and/or have a learning or physical disability.  Each student is assigned a COPE counselor who assists the student from orientation day through graduation. COPE counselors offer one-on-one assistance and guidance for all aspects of college life.

We encourage early application to the program since enrollment is limited. Students are accepted on the basis of eligibility, academic potential, need assessment, and available space. Since this program is funded through a federal TRIO grant, there is no cost to the student.

Services Include:

  • Professional and peer tutoring
  • Academic counseling
  • Progress reports from faculty
  • Appropriate placement in developmental classes
  • Career counseling
  • Financial aid counseling
  • Academic support groups
  • Computers with assistive technology
  • A quiet study area
  • Learning and testing accommodations
  • Voc Rehab referral and coordination
  • Transfer assistance to 4-year institutions
  • Mentoring and Job Shadowing
  • Workshops
