The Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP) was established as a result of a 1969 New York state law, which provided for the coordination of opportunity programs at CUNY, SUNY, and the independent colleges and universities under the aegis of the Board of Regents. The 1974-75 annual report summarizes the data reported by the individual institutional programs. Data and analyses are presented for the areas of administration, participating students' academic and personal characteristics, academic programs, student success rates, program financing and student aid, and program evaluation.
