EOP Income Guidelines

EOP applicants should meet the low-income guidelines listed below. Applicants whose total family income exceeds the guidelines may be considered if the expected family contribution (as determined by the Financial Aid Office) does not exceed $1,500. These guidelines are not intended to exclude economically disadvantaged students, but to identify and give priority to those applicants with the most financial need.
