TRIO EOC College Connections Project

Education outreach programs often serve as bridges between communities and higher learning, especially in neighborhoods where access isn’t always straightforward. The TRIO EOC College Connections Project operates with that mission in mind, offering guidance to students navigating the path to college. From application assistance to financial aid workshops, their services aim to demystify the process for those who might otherwise feel overwhelmed by the bureaucracy of admissions and funding.

Harlem has long been a hub for cultural and educational initiatives, and this program fits neatly into that tradition. You’ll find their office on the third floor of the Adam Clayton Powell Jr. State Office Building at 163 W 125th St, New York, NY 10027, a location that places them within easy reach of local high schools and community centers. The building itself is a landmark, making it a familiar reference point for anyone familiar with the area.

Planning a visit or need to confirm details? Their team can be reached at (212) 961-8950 to answer questions about eligibility, upcoming events, or how to schedule an appointment. While walk-ins might be accommodated, calling ahead ensures someone will be available to provide the support you need—whether it’s filling out forms or understanding scholarship requirements.

For those mapping out a route, the office is accessible via several bus lines and the 2/3 subway at 125th Street. Directions can be found here. Sometimes the smallest step—like knowing where to go—can make all the difference.
