Joining TRIO is a simple three step process:
The TRIO program serves MSU undergraduate students who meet specific criteria. Before you apply please review program eligibility.
The term “income qualified” is based on a family's taxable income for the preceding year. Please note that taxable income is different from gross income and should be reviewed carefully. These two amounts are listed separately on income tax forms. This link will provide you with the information necessary to determine if you are income qualified based on the number of individuals in your family and corresponding taxable income.
