Educational Opportunity Program (EOP)

The UB Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) provides an avenue for admission and means of support for talented students who have not yet reached their full academic potential due to barriers in their educational, economic or personal background. Applicants must be New York State residents who qualify under EOP financial eligibility guidelines. Eligibility for the EOP program is determined by the Office of Admissions at the time of a student’s admission to UB.

Only students initially accepted into EOP are eligible to receive EOP funds. EOP students are provided supplemental funds towards educational expenses upon completion of the FAFSA.

Information is subject to change without notice due to changes in federal, state and/or institutional rules and regulations. Students must complete a FAFSA every year. Students must be making satisfactory academic progress to continue to receive financial aid.
