The New Jersey Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) is designed to provide financial assistance and comprehensive support services—including counseling, tutoring, and developmental coursework—to highly motivated students. These students come from educationally and economically disadvantaged backgrounds but exhibit strong potential for academic and personal success.
Candidates for EOF must meet state financial eligibility requirements and demonstrate the capability to succeed but did not demonstrate sufficient academic preparation to gain admission to Kean University under its regular standards of admission or have an educational background indicating the need for enhanced basic skills, additional academic support, or preparation tailored to their intended degree program.
EOF offers several admission categories to accommodate students with diverse needs and qualifications. To ensure the best fit, applicants must complete the specific application corresponding to their EOF admission category.
