Best of luck during finals!!

Hi, TRIO Achiever,
Best of luck during finals. Say NO to cramming and all-nighters; say YES to a calm, systematic approach to study. Try to eat right and exercise. Now's the time to put into practice the time management skills you learned at our workshops. And don't hesitate to contact your TRIO advisor if you need anything.
Kind regards,

Monica Teixeira, Director

What TRIO members are saying
When I returned to school, I didn't expect to get this far--I plan to graduate in the fall of 2016. It hasn't been easy. My father's encouragement and TRIO's support have helped make my dream come true. Math was a big challenge, but thanks to TRIO tutors and workshops, I passed. Soon, I'll be the only member of my family to hold a bachelor's degree.

FAFSA Workshop on Tuesday, Dec. 1
TRIO is partnering with the Financial Aid Office to bring you this FAFSA Workshop on Tues., Dec. 1, from 3:00 to 4:00 pm in B 105. RSVP at
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Workshops-Events.
What TRIO members are saying
I think you should email and meet with your professors before the semester begins. It shows them you're motivated.
And it's smart to apply early for financial aid and to attend workshops on how to budget your money. Share your talents by volunteering, because you really can make a difference. Lots of laughter, prayer and living my life with joy and love for others have worked for me.
