The Tukole Reading Program is a summer long adventure designed to inspire children and young adults aged 10-18 to discover the joy of reading. From June 1st to August 31st, participants will enjoy curated book lists, weekly themed activities, virtual story time, book clubs, author visits, and exciting rewards. Ignite your child's passion for reading and enhance their literacy skills in a fun, community-driven environment with the Tukole Reading Program.

TUKOLE through its international and diaspora student office wishes to help bridge the gap between the educational needs and financial constraints of the students in our community. The summer jobs program is an initiative to advance the student’s economic and career prospects while reducing the financial burden.

The Graduate on Time Initiative, aimed at supporting students to achieve their educational goals efficiently and with minimal financial burden, provides a suite of services including financial literacy workshops, scholarship and grant assistance, peer mentoring, internship placements, and resource sharing opportunities.

The 2024-25 FAFSA process introduces significant changes designed to simplify the application and expand access to federal student aid. Key updates include a streamlined form reduced from 108 to 36 questions, expanded Pell Grant eligibility for low-income students, and changes in income reporting rules. Additionally, the student aid index can now be negative, providing more accurate assessments of financial need. The form will be available by December 31, 2023, instead of October 1.
