Student Profile

Approximately 450 students are enrolled in Act 101/EOP at the university. About half represent minorities, 60 percent are women, 20 percent are older than typical college freshmen, and they come from urban and rural environments.

Students share two common characteristics. They do not match the usual admissions profile and they possess a financial, cultural, social, or education disadvantage as defined by state or university program guidelines. In addition, students may enter Bloomsburg University through Act 101/EOP with pre-existing disabilities.
