Student Support Services Program

The Student Support Services (SSS) Program at GSCC is designed to increase the retention and graduation rates of eligible students, to facilitate their transfer to other institutions, and to foster an institutional climate supportive of the success of low-income students, first-generation students, or students with disabilities who are enrolled or accepted for enrollment in Gadsden State programs. The SSS Program consists of the following components: Academic Tutoring, Academic Counseling, Transfer Advisement, Career Advisement, Cultural Events, Mentoring Services, Enrichment Seminars, Financial Literacy Seminars, Study Skills Seminars, Disability Services, Computer Literacy, and Computer Labs. In order to participate in the SSS program, which serves 600 Gadsden State students, the student must apply to be in the program and must be accepted under the applicable eligibility criteria.
