NCCC awarded $129K for program
Niagara County Community College has been awarded $129,500 through the SUNY Investment and Performance Fund for first year costs of implementing a new Educational Opportunity Program.
The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) is a state-funded program combining access, academic support, and supplemental assistance to make higher education possible for students who have potential to succeed, despite poor preparation and limited financial resources.
The NCCC EOP will serve approximately 75 student applicants each year who are first-time, full-time students with no prior college, residents of New York state and high school graduates with a C average or a High School Equivalency Diploma (GED/ TASC), and members of an economically disadvantaged household.
