Abstract	In 1972, Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC) became the fourth of the TRIO Programs. EOCs provide counseling and information on college admissions to qualified adults who want to enter or continue a program of postsecondary education. EOCs coordinate with nearby postsecondary institutions and engage in activities designed to involve and acquaint the local community with higher education. This report provides a comprehensive profile of the EOC Program using the 1999- 2000 performance report data. Complete performance reports were submitted by 81 of 82 projects (99 percent), serving a total of 167,128 participants. This report is organized according to the structure of the performance report. Chapter I provides an introduction. Chapter II presents a demographic profile of EOC participants and target schools. Chapter III discusses the provision of project services. Chapter IV provides an analysis of performance outcomes, and Chapter V discusses data issues as well as plans for the future. This report is intended to serve as a resource for the improvement of EOC services. [This report was prepared for Federal TRIO Programs, Office of Postsecondary Education.] (ERIC).
