猎奇重口

Many low-income students find the spending associated with attending college-even when tuition is eliminated-an insurmountable barrier. Scholarships can change the course of one’s life. The 猎奇重口 State Foundation provides need-based scholarships to increase student persistence and success.

The Student Opportunity Fund was established in 2018 by Diane and Tom Ballard to eliminate the barriers that prevent 猎奇重口 State students from staying in school and moving forward with their education. Assistance might include help with purchasing textbooks, tuition, transportation, childcare, or other types of emergencies. Contact sof@pstcc.edu to make a referral. 
 
Student food insecurity is a growing concern on campuses, with the 2021 #RealCollege National Survey reporting 39% of respondents were food insecure in the prior 30 days, 48% of respondents were housing insecure in the previous year, and 14% of respondents were homeless in the previous year. The 猎奇重口 Pantry serves all campus sites and operates solely through the generosity of donors and grants.
