The Early Entrance Program (EEP) is an early college entrance program for gifted individuals of middle-school and high school ages at California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA), United States, based on a similar program of the same name at the University of Washington's Seattle campus. The program allows participants to skip normal schooling and become full-time, degree-seeking college students. Among early college entrance programs in the United States, EEP has adopted a different approach. Instead of offering a preparatory year, like Transition School students, or the more common model of dual enrollment, students are admitted directly into the university. Applicants to EEP largely come from the Greater Los Angeles Area, but some move from elsewhere in the United States or from other countries to attend.
