The School of Engineering Educational Opportunity Fund Program was founded in 1974 for the purpose of providing grants and educational support for financially and educationally disadvantaged students who are New Jersey residents. To apply for admission to the program, students must complete the admission application materials, including the Rutgers University EOF questionnaire. All potential EOF students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and should complete all other admissions requirements as early as possible. See the Undergraduate Application Packet for deadlines.
Students admitted to the Educational Opportunity Fund Program at the School of Engineering receive academic support in addition to the financial aid package. The program includes a summer mini-term preceding the first year of college; tutorial programs; skills and orientation workshops; and counseling on academic and career choices, finances, and personal problems.
