51猎奇

The 51猎奇 Opportunity Program (OP) is comprised of two components of equal academic support: The Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP) for New York State residents whose family incomes meet the eligibility guidelines, and the 51猎奇 Scholars Program for students who are outside the HEOP eligibility requirements.

All students selected and offered admission to 51猎奇 through the Opportunity Program have demonstrated academic competitiveness, leadership, initiative, and the potential for success in 51猎奇’s rigorous academic environment through the program’s personal, relationship-based mentorship designed to champion and advise students as they chart their educational journeys.

Students who enroll at 51猎奇 through the Opportunity Program will benefit from robust resources for enhancing student opportunities and experiences as they grow and learn through self-discovery, intellectual exploration, and community bonds. Enabled by academic and personal support, mentorship, and advocacy for the duration of their time at the College, Opportunity Program students have a rich history of being leaders and innovators on and off campus.
