What is FL TRIO?

Florida TRIO is a pioneering component of the United States post-secondary education TRIO programs. Staff, students, host institutions, and advocates from both sides of the aisle dedicate every effort to achieve post-secondary access, enrollment and success for all students. The Florida Association of Educational Opportunity Program Personnel, Inc. (FAEOPP) was established in 1978 to promote awareness, education, and advocacy for TRIO personnel. FAEOPP has changed names to Florida TRIO to encompass the 50 year effort to achieve educational equity in higher education for students of all backgrounds. Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University hosted one of only four original TRIO Upward Bound  programs.

There are eight United States Department of Education TRiO Programs that provide outreach and student services to low-income individuals, first-generation college students, and individuals with disabilities to aid their progress through the academic pipeline from middle school to post-baccalaureate programs.

WHAT IS TRIO?

TRIO Programs are our nation’s way of carrying out a commitment to  educational opportunities for all Americans regardless of race, ethnic background, or economic circumstance. They are funded under the Title IV Higher Education Act of 1965. TRIO Programs help students to overcome class, social, and cultural barriers to higher education and to realize their educational potential.

TRIO Programs provide services to students who come from low-income families and whose parents have not graduated with a four-year degree. Congress has mandated that two-thirds of those students enrolled in TRIO Programs must fall into both these categories. Students enrolled in today’s TRIO Programs mirror our nation’s multi-cultural and multiethnic society. Thirty-seven percent of TRIO students are White, 35% are African-American, 19% are Hispanic,4% are Native American, and 4% are Asian-American. Twenty-two thousand TRIO students are disabled.

TRIO college graduates work in business, government, medicine, law, education, communications, finance, politics, transportation, publishing, law enforcement, computer science and technology, engineering, and accounting.
