HOW DO I QUALIFY FOR SSS?
It's easier than you think! To qualify to become part of the STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICE program, you should meet two of the three following requirements:
1. FIRST GENERATION - Neither of your parents received a four-year college degree before you were 18-years-old.
2. LOW INCOME STUDENT - You are receiving financial aid, such as, a PELL Grant, SEOG, Student Loan Vocational Rehab, need-based scholarship or your taxable income meets federal guidelines.
3. DISABILITY - You have documented learning or physical disability. SSS works very closely with the Dixie State College Disability Resource Center (DRC).
Once you've determined that you qualify, pick up an application for membership in the North Instructional Building, Rooms 101, 103, 104 or 157. The SSS staff will review the applications and interview perspective participants.
Please note that because we are federally funded to serve only 200 participants per year, there may be semesters when we are unable to accept new members. In this case, your application will be kept on file and you will be contacted when we are able to take new participants.
