Realize Your Potential
SUNY Educational Opportunity
Program For more than 50
years, the SUNY Educational
Opportunity Program has made
college attendance possible
for students with limited
income who are academically
underprepared. EOP ensures
that students with academic
potential are provided the
opportunity to attend a SUNY
college, earn a degree, and
achieve their life goals.
EOP provides eligible students
with a pre-freshman summer
program experience, tutoring
and academic support, skill
development opportunities,
counseling, and modest financial
support.
Are You Eligible? To be eligible
for admission to EOP you
must: (1) be a New York State
resident for 12 months prior to
enrollment; (2) require alternate
admissions consideration; and
(3) qualify as economically
disadvantaged according to
the guidelines indicated. In
selecting students for the
program, priority is given to
applicants from historically
disadvantaged backgrounds.
Please note that eligibility does
not guarantee admission.
Academic Eligibility Academic
eligibility will vary by campus.
To view the EOP freshman
profile for each campus, visit

Financial Eligibility The table
to the right lists financial
guidelines for EOP eligibility. To
be determined economically
disadvantaged, your household
income must not exceed the
amount shown for its size,
or your circumstances must
conform to one of the following:
(1) your family is primarily
dependent on public assistance;
(2) you are in foster care as
established by the court; or (3)
you are a ward of the state or
county. Eligibility guidelines may
be adjusted slightly each year.
