Educational Opportunity Centers primarily serve displaced or underemployed workers with academic, personal and career counseling for individuals who plan to enter or continue a college education.

Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program encourages doctoral study by providing service to first-generation, underrepresented college students. Named in honor of the astronaut who died in the 1986 space shuttle explosion, this program enables students who participate to take part in research and provides faculty mentors.

Student Support Services contribute to the success of low-income, first generation college students and students with disabilities. Participants receive advising, counseling and tutoring, and may take remedial and developmental classes.

Talent Search programs serve middle and high school students with counseling, skill development support, and academic information on college requirements, scholarships, and financial aid programs. Students are encouraged to complete high school and pursue a college education.
