Program Services

EAOP specializes in academic advising that helps students stay motivated and on track to complete the 'a-g' course requirements required for UC and CSU eligibility. The specific courses approved for 'a-g' are unique to each high school and navigating the course offerings can be daunting. EAOP counselors mentor students through the process.
