Subject: IMPORTANT: FAFSA/ORSA/ScholarDollars Information
Importance: High
Good morning –
Please take a moment to read the information below. I encourage ALL students to submit their FAFSA and the ORSA if appropriate. Additionally, don’t forget
to apply for scholarships through OSU ScholarDollars. Even if you don’t *think* you’ll get a scholarship, still
APPLY! You can’t be considered if you don’t submit an application.
The
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for 2024-2025 will open by December 31stt. By submitting the FAFSA, a student will be considered for federal, state, and institutional need-based grants and federal student loans. Some grants have
limited funding, so the earlier a student submits their FAFSA, the better chance they have to receive those first-come-first-served grants.
Oregon residents who are not eligible to file a FAFSA may submit the
Oregon Student Aid Application (ORSAA) to be considered for need-based state grants. Submitting the 2024-2025 ORSAA application early will increase a student’s chances of receiving some of the limited funding that is available.
Even if a student doesn’t think they qualify for need-based grants or aren’t planning on accepting any student loans, OSU encourages all students to submit a FAFSA/ORSAA anyway. Many OSU
scholarships have a financial need requirement and the information from the FAFSA/ORSAA is used to determine eligibility for those scholarships. If we don’t have that information on record, students will be automatically excluded from consideration for
those need-based scholarships. Students are not required to accept any student loans offered to them, so there is no obligation by submitting the FAFSA/ORSAA.
Kind regards,
Khrystal
