Why should you participate?

Read what real students are saying: 

“It was always helpful to have someone to talk to about career planning and mentorship.”

“They have made my course work easier and my stress level much lower.” 

“One thing I really like is that the workers never made you feel like you were a nuisance and you always felt they had time just for you.” 

“They are friendly and especially understanding.” 

“I have been out of school for 30 years and Student Support Services gave me the guidance and direction I needed.” 

“I was helped in writing scholarship applications, planning class and planning my transfer.”
