National Louis University TRIO Educational Opportunity Center

Program Description

TRIO Education Opportunity Center (TRIO-EOC) is a federally funded college access program awarded to National Louis University to provide educational services to more than 1000 individuals a year on the South-Westside of Chicago. True to its mission, National Louis University provides access to quality higher education that nurtures opportunity for students through innovative teaching, scholarship, community engagement, and service excellence.

TRIO-EOC is not a recruitment initiative for the University, it is an effort to provide services in the community that align with our values of access, excellence, and innovation. In collaboration with community based organizations we are working to increase postsecondary enrollments and completion in the state of Illinois.
