SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
JOINT ADMISSIONS If you are interested in transferring to a four-year college upon graduation from Suffolk, then Joint Admissions may be of interest to you. Upon completion of your associate degree, you can transfer to one of the participating colleges providing you meet the requirements of the joint admissions agreement. This guaranteed admission to the four-year college will be honored for a two-year period following graduation from Suffolk, providing you do not matriculate at another institution. Note that you are under no obligation to attend the four-year college should your plans change for any reason. To apply for joint admissions, refer to the list of participating colleges on [Link]/Students/[Link]. You should also consult the catalogs from both Suffolk and the four-year college prior to admission. During your first semester at Suffolk, it is recommended that you speak with a counselor regarding your joint admissions plans. Suffolk may share enrolled student information with colleges with which it has joint admissions or articulation agreements. EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM (EOP) The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) is designed to provide academic support to students enrolled full-time in a curriculum at the college. Students admitted to the program have the academic potential to attain a college degree but may need additional academic support and counseling throughout their time at the college to persist to graduation. Eligibility The program is offered to full-time students who are New York State residents for twelve months prior to attending college. EOP accepts students who qualify academically and financially based on the following guidelines: a. New York State resident; b. recipient of a high school diploma, GED or its equivalent; c. full-time registration; d. 79 or less high school average in major subjects, or placement in one or more developmental courses; e. non-high school graduate who is admitted to SCCC through the Ability to Benefit (ATB) program; f. meet NYS legislated income HONORS PROGRAM The Honors Program is a college-wide interdisciplinary program for academically talented and highly motivated students. It is grounded in the traditions of the liberal arts and stresses the connections among various disciplines and the tools of artistic, scientific, and intellectual creativity. The Honors Program combines small classes, gifted faculty, enthusiastic students, rigorous course work, and various activities to create an environment that nurtures intellectual growth. Honors classes are offered during the day and evening and are available to both part-time and full-time students on all three campuses. For requirements, visit [Link]/Students/[Link].
