Grants


Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) Grant. New Jersey residents who are full-time students and who can demonstrate backgrounds of financial and academic hardship are eligible for EOF grants ranging from $200 to $2,850. Students who received EOF grants as undergraduates are presumed eligible if they fall below the maximum income parameters required for all recipients of this state grant. Graduate students who did not receive EOF grants as undergraduates but feel that they come from backgrounds of financial hardship and wish to be considered should contact the Office of Financial Aid for information. The grants are renewable for the duration of the student's degree work, subject to continued student eligibility and provided satisfactory academic progress is made. Applicants must complete the FAFSA form.

New Jersey State Grant. Full-time graduate students who are classified as New Jersey residents for tuition purposes and who demonstrate financial need are eligible to receive a New Jersey State Grant. Amounts vary from $200 to $1,000 per year and are dependent upon available funds. Grants are renewable. Applicants must complete the FAFSA form. EOF Grant recipients are not eligible.
