Aid applications are reviewed after the file is complete. Completing applications incorrectly and omitting information on the application causes processing delays. Federal Work-Study may be awarded depending on the student's financial aid preference and aid eligibility. The student will receive two copies of the award letter. Aid may be disbursed beginning one week before classes begin for the Fall and Spring semesters.
Federal regulations prohibit disbursing aid earlier.
Refer to the OU Class Schedule for the early disbursement schedule. In order to avoid delays, the student must apply accurately and notify our office of any address changes.
