I have a little problem here. I applied EOP program when I was doing my cornell application, but then I realized it was something different than I thought. Because of my family financial problem, I thought if I applied EOP program, I can have free tuition. But then it says EOP gives students who have the ability for academic success, but not the requirements for regular admission, the chance to attend Cornell University, which sounds completely different in my case. I think I definitely have the ability to go for regular admission with all my test grades and GPA, but the reason I am going for it is for financial reason, so should I still apply for EOP? or I should apply for regular admission. I am so confused right now. Who is eligible for applying EOP? with only low income or low grades and low income?
