The Extended Opportunities Programs and Services and Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education program are accepting applications for the spring 2014 semester.

Located in the Library building, L-206, the EOPS/CARE program is just one of the many services offered by the campus within the Library Student Support Center.

EOPS/CARE offers priority registration, academic advising, personal counseling, career guidance, transfer information, and tutoring among many other services.

Applications are available within L-206 or can be found through the Cosumnes River College website. Students need only be a California resident, be registered for 12 units, qualify to receive the Board of Governors Fee Waiver, have completed more than 24-degree applicable units and submit an application to be considered for the program.

Those considered for admittance must be determined to be educationally disadvantaged by the EOP&S program.

Qualifying for the CARE program also means being eligible for EOP&S, be a recipient of TANF or CalWorks, a single head of a household, a parent of a child 13 or younger, be at least 18-years-old and a full-time student.

All of the application and supporting documents must be completed and signed upon turning in. No unfinished applications will be accepted.

Finished applications can be returned to L-206 for consideration.
