Post Secondary Success Grant

Welcome to the Post Secondary Success Grant

The Post-Secondary Success Grant at Jarvis Christian University is designed to increase student retention and degree completion through targeted support. It consists of two key components: the Blue and Gold Fellows Program and Project Comeback. The Blue and Gold Fellows is an on-campus initiative that provides wraparound services to students with GPAs between 1.79 and 2.49, giving them direct access to success coaches, peer mentors, and career specialists. Project Comeback supports students who have previously stopped out of college and are not currently enrolled, helping them return to complete their degrees. These students receive support from success coaches, enrollment coaches, and career specialists, and may be eligible for previous balance forgiveness upon graduation, determined on a case-by-case basis. Both programs offer access to paid summer internships, book vouchers, and emergency funding to help students stay on track academically and financially.
