Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) Any student whom the institution deems eligible for admission to the EOF program in the academic year, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 9A:11-2, shall be qualified to receive additional grant funds for enrollment and full participation in the summer program or winter session, in accordance with (b) and (c) below.

(b) Based upon the assessment of students' preparation and readiness for collegiate study, institutions may require eligible students to participate in a pre-first year summer program as a condition of their admission and/or eligibility to receive EOF grants and support services during the academic year. The EOF pre-first year summer program is intended to assist students that have been admitted to the institution as identified at N.J.A.C. 9A:11-6.1(h)2 and 3. Institutions may permit students to enroll without participating in a summer program, as long as the institution provides, during the academic year, alternative activities for such students consistent with the goals of N.J.A.C. 9A:11-5.1 and the requirements of N.J.A.C. 9A:11-5.3.

(c) EOF program applicants who have earned 24 or more college credits while in high school or earned an associate's degree as part of their high school graduation requirements are eligible for participation in the pre-first year summer program. Furthermore, these students must be considered for the EOF program based on the EOF Article III student grant funding priorities outlined at N.J.A.C. 9A:11-6.1(h), and if they meet all of the eligibility requirements set forth at N.J.A.C. 9A:11-2.2 and 2.3.

(d) Institutions shall establish criteria and a well-defined process for distributing summer program and winter session funding for renewal students. Depending on the availability of funds, renewal students may attend summer programs or winter session if such attendance accomplishes one of the following:

1. Completion of basic skills requirements;

2. Maintenance of academic progress;

3. Completion of graduation requirements;

4. Completion of prerequisites to remain in academic sequence or gain access to a specific major;

5. Removal from academic probation;

6. Repetition of courses not successfully completed (F, incomplete, etc.); or

7. Acceleration and special summer or winter enrichment programming.
