Increasing Student Success, Retention, and Graduation Rates by Improving Support for Academic Writing and Literacy
The U.S. Department of Education awarded 2.25 million dollars to حوإ¼½م½م under a five-year Title III Strengthening Institutions Program (SIP) grant. The grant originally ran from October 2019 to September 2024. However, the institution was granted a 6th-year no-cost extension to utilize carryover funds, through September 2025.

- Establishes a robust حوإ¼½م½م Writing Center
