Starting college can feel overwhelming, especially as a first-generation or nontraditional student.

For Edgar Ruiz Jr., TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) at Roosevelt University made all the difference. Now a peer mentor, he’s helping other students find the same support and confidence that shaped his journey.
“I didn’t know that this level of support was a thing.”

The Psychology student and mental health advocate helps his fellow Lakers thrive as a peer tutor.
