Available Scholarship Funding
There are several types of scholarships available to FWCS graduate students. Each type is administered by a different entity at Oregon State University. Please review the following for information on how to finance your education. If a scholarship is dispersed into a student account, that funding will be applied toward any balance owed to the University and then the student can request any remaining balance as a personal check.
Office of Graduate Education Scholarships
The OSU Office of Graduate Education (OGE) offers Scholarships that typically require a nomination by the FWCS Department, although a few awards cane be applied for directly by the student. Awards requiring nomination by the FWCS Department will involve an early deadline and review of applications by the FWCS Department's Scholarship and Graduate Committees. For more detailed information, visit the Scholarships webpage and watch for email notifications of deadlines sent by the FWCS Graduate Program Coordinator.
