Project MOST
The Project MOST program is grant-funded through the U.S. Department of Education's Predominantly Black Institutions (PBI) initiative and is designed to give assistance to first-year low income students. MOST is also supported by essential funding from the Tennessee State Collaborative on Reforming Education (SCORE) that allows for a crucial level of support for the low income students in MOST.
Every segment of the society must be prepared to make positive contributions toward establishing and maintaining a workforce that excels in terms of knowledge and quality output. To aid in this accomplishment, the MOST program offers an excellent opportunity for our low income students to participate in a dynamic experience whereby they are supported through the following:
- A thorough battery of academic, career-interest, and barrier identification assessments
- Intensive case management services
- Monthly stipends
- Learning-support services
- Mentoring
- Learning cohort support services
- Leadership training
Keep abreast of all of the upcoming events — check out the Student Events Calendar, digital monitors located around the college and like us on the MOST Facebook (opens new window) page or the College Facebook (opens new window) page.
Project MOST is providing MiFi devices to enrolled Southwest students!
