Each student is assigned an advisor who will work with students to establish, pursue and refine educational and career goals. Learn more.

Financial Aid and Scholarship Assistance

First Generation Advisors provide financial aid assistance and answer questions about eligibility and using your aid to pay for classes and purchase books. We also partner with the Foundation for Seminole State each semester to host workshops to help students to apply Foundation Scholarships and provide other opportunities for scholarships as they arise.
