College students have more support than they realize, according to Michele Doorley a counselor for the the Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP) on April 21 in Myers.
“The HEOP office is a place for students to go when they don't know where to go,” said Doorley.
The HEOP is funded by New York State and is designed to help students that are in good academic standing but do not have the financial resources. This program enrolls about 25 to 30 students a year and there are generally a few transfer students during the year.
