To be eligible to participate in the CAMP program, a person must be a seasonal or migrant farmworker or a dependent of a seasonal or migrant farmworker, or have qualified in the past and/or are currently qualified for the Farmworker Career Development Program (WIOA Title I Section 167). "Migrant farmworker" means a farmworker whose employment required travel that prevented the farmworker from returning to his or her home within the same day. "Seasonal farmworker" means a person who, within the past 24 months was employed for at least 75 days in farm work, and whose primary employment was in farm work on a temporary or seasonal basis (not constant year-round activity).

In addition, you must:

1. Be a high school or GED graduate
2. Enroll as a full-time student at the University of South Florida 
3. Enroll as a First-Time-In-College student (not have earned more than 11 college credits since graduating high school)
4. Be in need of academic supporting services and financial assistance 

I, (family member listed above), give USF's College Assistance Migrant Program permission to contact the listed agricultural employer to verify seasonal agricultural work.

If you have any questions regarding eligibility, please contact Brigita at 813-974-5806 or brigita@usf.edu.
