TRIO SSS Application

Important information, please read carefully!


  1. In order to participate in TRiO SSS, you must be currently enrolled, or accepted for undergraduate enrollment, at Rutgers-Camden; be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident; meet financial eligibility, be a first-generation college student (neither parent/guardian has earned a 4-year college degree), and/or an individual with a documented disability.
  2. First-generation college status is based on the educational attainment only of the parent(s) or guardian(s) with whom you resided before your 18th birthday.
  3. TRiO regulations define an individual with disabilities as "a person who has a diagnosed physical, mental, or learning impairment that substantially limits that person's ability to participate in the educational experiences and opportunities offered by the grantee institution." Thus, for eligibility purposes, academic need considerations are primary.
  4. Please allow 30 days for review of the application.
