Extended Opportunity Programs and Services
- Extended Opportunity Programs and Services
Extended Opportunity Programs and Services (EOP&S) is designed and funded by the State of California and Community College districts to recruit and assist college students who show academic and financial need, considered educationally disadvantaged and/or academically underprepared. Created in January 1969, introduced by Senator Al Alquist, its purpose is to encourage enrollment, retention and transfer of students disadvantaged by various factors, such as language, social, economic and education. EOP&S promotes student academic success with enrollment assistance, educational planning, tutoring/educational services, and limited financial assistance when available. Eligibility is limited to California residents who demonstrate eligibility for receiving the Board of Governors Grant and have an academic need.
EOP&S eligible students, who are single head of household TANF/AFDC recipients, may also be eligible to participate in the Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education (CARE) Program.
Please see your local Community College EOP&S Staff/Counselor.
