Educational Opportunity Center (EOC)

The Educational Opportunity Center (EOC) provides free personalized guidance, counseling, and information on admission and financial aid to adults who want to begin or continue a program of post-secondary education. EOC's goal is to increase awareness of educational options and encourage adults to participate in these programs. The EOC is a program of the College Board, funded by a grant from the US Department of Education under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965.

The EOC assists all residents of the District of Columbia; however, the Center focuses on low-income adults who are nineteen (19) years of age or older and the first in their families to pursue higher education education.
