Student Support Services/Tutoring

TRiO Hands

Randolph Community College offers individual attention and academic support for its students. The Office of Student Support Services is responsible for helping students achieve success by providing tutoring, career counseling, and transfer advisement to four-year universities.

The intent of the Office of Student Support Services is to provide academic support while helping students recognize and accept their responsibility for meeting all course requirements so they become independent and self-directed learners.

The mission of the Randolph Community College TRIO/SSS program is to increase retention and graduation rates of our students. We strive to achieve this by assisting participants to overcome social, cultural, financial, personal, academic, and any other challenges that will enable them to fully participate in the life of the college and ultimately achieve the goal of graduation.

A crucial aspect of the program's mission is to increase awareness of socioeconomic class issues and challenges at RCC with the purpose of impacting policies, the framing of RCC’s values, activities, and decisions to help develop an environment where TRIO eligible students can thrive.

The program's overall objectives include facilitating the growth and development of participants to form a strong sense of identity about where they've come from, clarity and confidence about who they are, and a broad vision about where they are going, what they can become, and the positive impact they can have in the world.
