Being a student can be expensive.  Fortunately, it comes with many benefits, but these benefits aren’t limited to on-campus services.  Your FRCC Wolf Card provides access to hundreds of student discounts, both in-person and online. Below are just a few examples of the discounts available to you as a student at FRCC.

FRCC Resources

Tutoring and the ASC
The Academic Success Center here on campus offers free math and writing help, and also offers free tutoring and tutor-led study groups.  There is no cost, and there are no prerequisites. Don’t wait. It’s much easier to stay ahead of the game than it is to play catch-up.

Free Student Planners
Student Life offers free planners to all FRCC students.  Stop by the Student Life office and get yours today.

FRCC Pantry and Kitchen Table
Is food insecurity causing you stress?  Student Life offers a free pantry to any students who want food assistance and you can register here.  The Kitchen Table also offers free food to FRCC students outside the SOC on Tuesday mornings from 8:30 am – 1:00 pm.

Veteran Services
The Veteran Services office exists to help veterans in many different ways, including but not limited to educational benefits, timely award of benefits, veteran student scholarships, and even has a room dedicated just to student veterans.

MS Office 365
All current FRCC students have free access to Microsoft Office 365.  To access it, just log into eWolf and click the Office 365 icon.
