If a student is eligible for Oklahoma鈥檚 Promise program but does not see the award credited to their account they need to contact a 91影视 Financial Aid office for further information.
Students are required to notify a 91影视 Financial Aid Office before the end of the semester about any unpaid Oklahoma鈥檚 Promise funds in order to receive their award for that semester.

The information from the FAFSA will be used to determine whether or not the federal adjusted gross income (AGI) of the student鈥檚 parents exceeds $100,000 at the time the student begins post-secondary education (the income limit will apply to the student鈥檚 income if the student is officially determined to be financially independent of his or her parents).
Beginning in 2018-2019, the second income limit will be applied each year to all OK Promise students enrolled in postsecondary education (college), not just entering freshmen.

Any year that the student does not receive the award because their income exceeds the income limit will count toward the five-year period of scholarship eligibility.
