HEOP

The Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP) is committed to offering higher education opportunities to New York state high school graduates and GED holders who do not normally meet admission criteria but have the potential for success at Keuka College. The program was created in 1969 by the New York State Legislature to assist in providing access for all New Yorkers to the state’s private colleges and universities.

The mission of HEOP at Keuka College is to provide holistic support to all our students in an enriched and inclusive community setting. We enhance your accomplishments by encouragement, meant to build resilience and inspire achievement that leads to success.

As a HEOP student at Keuka College, you'll receive academic and financial assistance that will allow you to successfully earn an undergraduate degree. Sponsored jointly by the State Education Department and Keuka College, HEOP will offer you comprehensive academic support services and full-need financial aid packaging.

To qualify as an incoming first-year student, you must apply and meet the academic and income guidelines as noted in the College Record. Please note the HEOP process at each college is different.
