Eligible institutions, whether currently funded by SSS or with a history of SSS programming, are invited to apply by October 15, 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCommunity colleges serve as the vital gateway to postsecondary opportunity for more than 4.5 million students nationwide,\u201d said COE President Kimberly Jones. \u201cBy honoring institutions that have made SSS practices a permanent, mission-aligned part of their work, we spotlight models that help low-income and first-generation students not only enroll but persist and graduate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A landmark 2019 U.S. Department of Education evaluation found that SSS participants were 47 percent more likely to complete a two-year degree or transfer and 18 percent more likely to earn a bachelor\u2019s degree than their comparable peers. The new COE Award will amplify those proven gains by identifying practical, scalable approaches that benefit student populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paula Kashtan, program officer at ECMC Foundation, remarked, \u201cOur Foundation\u2019s strategic commitment to community colleges reflects their essential role in driving economic mobility. COE\u2019s award will accelerate the adoption of evidence-based SSS practices, ensuring that colleges nationwide thoughtfully invest in the success of first-generation and low-income students.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The selection process unfolds in two stages. First, colleges complete a brief application demonstrating how SSS strategies, such as mentoring, academic coaching, and data-driven evaluation, have been institutionalized beyond the original TRIO program. Second, semifinalists coordinate an in-person campus visit between November 15, 2025, and January 15, 2026. Three finalists will be notified by March 2026, each receiving $10,000 in unrestricted funds to advance their student-centered work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nicole Norfles, Ed.D., COE Director of Program Practice and Innovation and liaison to the Community College Initiative Advisory Committee, added, \u201cThis award recognizes not just programs, but institutional commitment. We look forward to celebrating colleges that have woven SSS best practices into advising, resource alignment, and opportunity-focused planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn alignment with COE\u2019s mission to expand educational opportunity, this award honors community colleges that exemplify effective student-centric strategies,\u201d said Aaron Brown, Executive Vice President of COE. \u201cBy celebrating institutions that have seamlessly embedded TRIO Student Support Services practices campus-wide, we aim to spotlight replicable models that not only lift individual students but strengthen entire communities and ensure that every campus is equipped to support first-generation and low-income learners on their path to success.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Community colleges interested in applying can download the guidelines and <a href=\"https:\/\/coenet.org\/coe-award-for-institutional-effectiveness\/\">application form at coenet.org here<\/a>.
