Expanding Horizons

Student using laptop computerExpanding Horizons is a student support services program designed to promote the academic success of FSC students who are from low income backgrounds, families where neither parent has received a baccalaureate degree, and / or students with disabilities.

Non-traditional students and those with a 2.5 minimum GPA requirement for their major may also qualify. To be considered for membership in EHP, students must complete an application and an interview with the EHP team.
