Abstract
Student Support Services (SSS) is grant funded through the U.S. Department of Education to provide comprehensive services to help students achieve a successful college experience by increasing academic performance, retention, and graduation rates. SSS also works to foster an institutional climate supportive of the success of low income, first generation students and students with disabilities. The strength of the SSS program is providing comprehensive support to under-represented students at Creighton University who have the ability and desire to succeed but would benefit from additional advocacy, academic, personal, financial , and career support. SSS provides personalized and comprehensive support services for eligible participants.
