Answer this brief questionnaire to review EOF eligibility requirements:

 •  Have you been a New Jersey resident for 12 months or longer?
•  Is this your first time in college?
•  If returning to college, have you completed less than 24 college credits?
•  Do you or your family have a history of low income?
•  Are you the child of parents who did not graduate from high school or complete college?
•  Are or were you eligible for the Free/Reduced Lunch program or other government assistance program?
•  Are you or do you intend to be a fulltime student (12credits or more)?
•  Do you need and/or are you enrolled in developmental courses?
•  Are you eligible for financial aid?

 If you are able to answer "Yes" to two or more of these questions, you should make an appointment for an interview.

 If you are not eligible for federal and/or state financial aid, it is unlikely that you would be eligible for the EOF program.
