You cannot enroll in for-credit CSU college English
and/or Math classes until you meet the requirement.
You must spend time taking remedial English/Math
classes during your freshman year until you meet the
requirement.
You will possibly graduate later because you get no
degree credit for remedial English/Math classes.
You may have to pay additional charges for the
remedial classes.
If you do not pass the remedial classes by the end of
your first year, you may be withdrawn from
the university.

The Educational Opportunity Program is designed
to improve access and retention of historically
low-income and educationally disadvantaged
students. EOP students have the potential and
demonstrated motivation to perform satisfactorily
at a CSU, but they have not been able to realize
their potential because of their economic or
educational background.
EOP accepts students who do not meet regular
admission criteria, as well as those who qualify for
regular admission.
Once admitted as an EOP student, you may be eligible
to enroll in an EOP summer program to strengthen
your math, reading, or other skills.
During your enrollment in college, you can receive
counseling, tutoring, and advising services. If you are
eligible, an EOP grant may be awarded.
