Financial Aid Opportunities<\/strong>
Financial aid and scholarships can make paying for school much easier, and now is the time to submit your FAFSA<\/a> (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or ORSAA<\/a> (Oregon Student Aid Application) and apply for scholarships for the 2022-2023 academic year. Filing a FAFSA or ORSAA is something you need to do every year. We recommend you file as soon as possible. Here are some reasons why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– OSU awarded more than $66 million in scholarships for the 2020-2021 academic year.
– The FAFSA is how you access all types of federal aid, including grants, loans and work study. Consider it a safety net \u2013 even if you never need these resources, it\u2019s good to have the option ready if your circumstances change.
– The FAFSA and ORSAA make you eligible for consideration for the Oregon Opportunity Grant<\/a> and other aid programs at OSU.
– Most types of aid have limited funding available, so the sooner you submit your FAFSA or ORSAA, the better your chances of receiving an award.
