Student Support Services (SSS) - Inspired to Achieve

Student Support Services (SSS) works with first-generation College students, those who come from a modest-income household, or students who have some type of disability throughout their time at Don Bosco College.

SSS: Inspired to Achieve

SSS: Inspired to achieve provides resources and services students need on their path to College graduation and whatever lies beyond. We achieve this by taking a holistic approach, meeting students at their level of need, providing intensive academic advising, advocating for and with them, developing a sense of educational responsibility within each student, and celebrating the milestones along the way. Students are provided opportunities for cultural exploration, developing and furthering knowledge, forming relationships and personal growth.

Overcoming barriers and succeeding in higher education is what Student Support Services is all about. Committed to the success of each programme participant, the staff creates a climate of support specifically designed to facilitate student learning and development, enabling the student access, persist and graduate from College.
