The Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) program at Ramapo College intentionally addresses these challenges, reshaping the narrative and offering hope and opportunities for students and families.\u00a0 Established in New Jersey by legislation approved in 1968, the EOF program focuses on expanding access to higher education for low-income, first-generation and underrepresented New Jersey students. <\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>For over 55 years, the EOF program, administered by the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education (OSHE) in conjunction with the EOF Board of Directors, has provided support services beyond traditional financial aid for undergraduate students facing historical poverty. The EOF program offers meaningful access and comprehensive support services such as a five-week summer transition program, one-on-one advisement, mentorship and academic support programs and tutoring. Focusing on inclusivity and social mobility, the program currently supports over 300 students at Ramapo College and over 13,000 students statewide. <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”824px” custom_padding=”10px||10px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Oswald|||on|||||” header_2_text_color=”#862633″ header_2_font_size=”30px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n One key aspect of EOF\u2019s impact is the Pre-College Summer Studies Institute, a five-week summer program that helps first-year students prepare to transition from high school to college. The comprehensive summer experience sets the stage for student success, including living on campus, exposure to college-level courses, peer mentors, programming and networking. Many upper-class students, inspired by their own experiences as incoming first-year students, return to the summer program as student tutors or peer mentors.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The transformative impact of accessible education is evident in the success stories of EOF students. Ossiris Garcia \u201927, a first-year biology\/pre-med student, attests to the impact of the summer transition, \u201cBeing in the EOF Summer Program\u2026has been a life-changing experience. I\u2019ve learned so much from my professors, mentors, supplemental Instructors and advisors.

Keith Hurst \u201925, a graduating accounting major, shared his perspective on the impact of EOF on his life: \u201cDuring my first two years, I struggled socially, academically and mentally. I honestly thought I would have been forced to drop out, but these thoughts changed once I met my EOF Advisor, Ms. Natalie Qui\u00f1ones.

Her influential work with diverse groups of students, faculty and staff populations sparked her appreciation and passion for college access, empowerment and mentorship for students from underserved communities. Working at institutions of higher learning, along with serving on the ACE Women\u2019s Network N.J.
