As an EOP student you will be required to attend, in July, a mandatory five-week residential summer program at Rider University.  The summer program is intended to help familiarize students with the rigors of academic life and the University environment.  Students are required to take courses in Speech Communications, College Writing, and Logic.  In addition, students are also required to participate in socially enriching activities and leadership workshops.  The summer program is intended to orient students to the Rider University campus.
