Having the right qualifications or meeting the necessary conditions to do or receive something.
“Members who have paid their annual dues are eligible for the discount.”
“You may be eligible to receive a partial refund under our cancellation policy.”
This is a key word in letters about qualifying for a program, discount, or refund. Pay attention to the preposition that follows — 'eligible for' — since Part 1B blank questions often test whether you know the correct word paired with the correct preposition.
Synonyms: qualified, entitled, suitable
