Stay Connected and Informed
Through your free subscriptions to the EOP newsletter and alumni events calendar, and access to our alumni activities database, you can stay informed about upcoming program events, TRIO developments, and alumni activities.
Give Back and Get Involved
The TRIO Alumni Association is dedicated to promoting community welfare and providing educational opportunities. You can become a volunteer to support the association’s continuous initiative toward community improvement and educational empowerment, and/or make a donation to increase the scholarship fund for the EOP’s next generation of graduates and other beneficiaries.
Academic Support
If you are still in college, your association membership, along with your active support and involvement in the alumni activities, makes you eligible for many scholarships and tutoring services managed by EOP. Tutoring is available for most subjects and can be flexible to fit your busy schedule.
