The Education Opportunity Fellowship (EOF) application for the academic year 2010-11 is now available online and the application due date is April 15, 2010. This fellowship is needs-based and the Office of Financial Aid will determine eligibility based on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).  Funds are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis until all are disbursed.

Eligibility requirements MUST be met in order to apply.  If you previously held an EOF, you must renew the application each year.

The maximum amount of the award for 2010-11 will be $1500 per semester plus $200 per dependent per semester.  Awards are typically for Fall and Spring semesters.  Summer awards will be granted if funds are available.
