USU TRIO SSS is no longer accepting applications for Spring 2025. Submit your interest form here to hold your place on the waitlist for Fall 2025.

TRIO SSS is accepting students for the waitlist for Fall 2025 in the order that applicant interest forms are submitted through our website. Due to federally required participant eligibility ratios, intake priority is given to applicants who meet both income eligibility and one other eligibility (either first-generation college student or documented disability). Further, to maximize TRIO resources, intake priority is given to applicants who meet the prerequisites for a TRIO SSS math/stats class. Applicants on the waitlist will either be invited to complete intake or be informed their priority position on the waitlist when TRIO begins processing intake for Fall 2025.

While on the waitlist, remember that for all Aggies, USU provides Academic Success Coaches for individual meetings (https://www.usu.edu/able/academic-success-coaches) as well as Habits of Mind courses (https://www.usu.edu/able/habits-of-mind) to strengthen the habits of mind required for success in university work.

Steps to apply:

1

Fill In The TRIO SSS Interest Form On This Page

Complete the quick interest form below. You only need to do it once! This preliminary form allows TRIO SSS to check USU records and ensure you are a candidate to continue the application process. The earlier you submit your form, you will be nearer the top of the waitlist for Fall 2025.
2

Complete TRIO SSS Verification

TRIO SSS is a federal grant program that requires verification of eligibility to participate with our services and classes. If we verify you are a candidate to continue the application process, watch to receive a TRIO Eligibility Verification Form from us sent to your USU Email account with instructions.
3

Intake Meeting and Detailed Application Survey

If you are selected for program intake, you will be invited to schedule an intake meeting and complete a more detailed application survey that helps TRIO understand your academic needs. The intake meeting (in-person or via Zoom) will determine whether you are selected for TRIO.
