Washington State University Tri-Cities first received a $1.1 million grant in fall 2010 from the U.S. Department of Education to create a TRiO Student Support Services Program for low-income, first-generation, and disabled students. In fall 2015, we were refunded for another five years to continue providing beneficial services to our students. WSU Tri-Cities will continue to use this five-year grant to increase student success to graduation. We were funded to serve 140 eligible undergraduate students annually.
