All newly admitted EOP first-year students are required to participate in the EOP Summer Bridge Program in July. 

The EOP Summer Bridge Program is designed to help students bridge the gap between high school and college through intentional programming and enrichment activities. Students will be able to participate in activities that help them learn about the campus culture, EOP history, leadership development, financial aid, and more. Summer Bridge is also a great way for students to engage and network with other EOP students and build meaningful connections prior to the start of the school year. For more information about Summer Bridge go to the frequently asked questions page.

We have two options for students to participate in: Summer Bridge Residential and Summer Bridge Commuter.
