Student Support

We want to help you succeed not just in your educational goals, but in life. We recognize that there are many other areas of your life, like family, work, and personal/mental health that you have to balance along with your classes, and we’re here to offer support.

The Dean of Students Office oversees a wide range of student support initiatives including:

Single Stop

Single Stop connects students to government and community resources that will help them reach financial security, such as government benefits (SNAP, TANF, WIC); educational resources; legal assistance; housing options and health insurance options. By completing the online screening, Single Stop can estimate in minutes what supplemental resources students might be eligible to receive. Single Stop staff are also available to assist students in accessing these resources.

Broadband Internet Service Assistance

The FCC is currently offering an Emergency Broadband Benefit that provides a $50/month discount to households that meet eligibility requirements.

Care Team

The college's Care Team provides support to students struggling with personal issues impacting their success at Brightpoint.

Student Emergency Fund 

The Student Emergency Fund assists Brightpoint students who are facing an unexpected short-term financial emergency.

Safe Zone

Safe Zone creates a safe and supportive campus for all students regardless of their gender and sexual orientation
