Your 11th grader can still sign up for Oklahoma’s Promise but the deadline is June 30, 2024. Oklahoma’s Promise allows students who meet certain income, academic and conduct requirements to earn a college or technology center tuition scholarship.
The income requirements follow:
Must be a student whose parents' federal adjusted gross income does not exceed:
• $60,000 with 1 or 2 dependent children OR
• $70,000 with 3 or 4 dependent children OR
• $80,000 with 5 or more dependent children.
(Special income provisions may apply to children adopted from certain court-ordered custody and children in the custody of court-appointed legal guardians or Social Security benefits based on the disability or death of the student's parent.)
Upon completion of the program’s requirements, your student will earn:
• Tuition at an Oklahoma public two-year college or four-year university,
• OR a portion of tuition at an accredited Oklahoma private college or university,
• OR a portion of tuition for approved programs at Oklahoma public technology centers.
Remember, this is the final year your student can apply. Even if your student is unsure about college this year, I would encourage you to fill out the application if you meet the requirements.
Please contact Debra Keil, (dkeil@osrhe.edu) GEAR UP Ed. Coordinator, for assistance or if you have any questions.
