Academic Support & Student Life
Educational Opportunity Fund Program
| The Educational Opportunity Fund Program (EOF) is a state-funded program which provides an opportunity for higher education to disadvantaged New Jersey residents who would not be able to attend and/or succeed academically in college without the financial assistance and special services that are part of the program.
The program is geared toward the student who shows potential, and who traditionally has been unable to attend college because of poor high school preparation, and whose economic background reflects a history of poverty as defined by the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education.

The program provides individual and group counseling in the form of personal, career, financial and academic advisement. Tutoring is available at no cost to EOF students.
Pre-freshmen participate in a summer program which is designed to strengthen academic weaknesses and to orient students to campus life.
