The Federal TRIO Programs (TRIO) are Federally funded outreach and service programs designed to identify and provide service for individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds. TRIO includes eight programs targeted to serve and assist low-income individuals, first-generation college students, and individuals with disabilities to progress through the academic pipeline from middle school to postbaccalaureate programs.\u00a0At this time, Tarleton has three of the eight programs; One College program: Student Support Services<\/a> on the Stephenville, Fort Worth, and Waco campuses, and Two Pre-College programs: Talent Search<\/a> and Upward Bound<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
