After you apply, the NG体育 Financial Aid Office may request additional information from you. Watch your my.eou.edu Dashboard and look for red flags. If no additional information is needed, proceed to step three.
When your award is ready, we will send you an email with instructions for accepting your award. The link to your award will appear in your my.eou.edu Dashboard. If you are a new freshman or transfer student, a paper copy of your offer will be mailed to the address on your FAFSA.
You will also need to schedule a meeting with a Financial Aid Counselor to discuss your college financing offer.
If, after consultation with your financial aid counselor, you determine that you want to use your federal loan eligibility to help pay for your school expenses, you must accept those loans in Mountie Hub, and complete entrance counseling and fill out and sign a master promissory note on studentaid.gov BEFORE your last day of attendance for the term.
