Work-study seems confusing at a first glance. It is pretty straightforward and easy to understand once you learn the basics of the work-study award. Let’s discuss work-study and answer some common questions about it along the way!
Creating a Plan to Pay for College
One of the most common questions that we get from incoming students and parents is “how much is this going to cost?” and the next question is often “how are we going to pay for this?” While the cost of paying for college can be overwhelming, there are a few things that you can do to help lessen the stress of coming up with the overall cost.
Scholarship Tips and Tricks
One of the most important things students have to determine is how they are going to pay for college. Scholarships can be used to help pay down your cost of college meaning that less funding will come from your pocket. Today, we are going to focus on two types of scholarships: Internal and External (3rd Party) scholarships. Internal scholarships are scholarships awarded by UCO or the UCO Foundation and anything else is considered an external scholarship. External scholarships are awarded by outside organizations that you may be apart of such as your church or tribe, employers that pay toward employee or dependent college costs, or even organizations such as your local Lions club or community foundations like the Oklahoma City Community Foundation.
What Is A Money Coach Anyway?
The Money Coach Program is a financial literacy resource that is available to current and prospective UCO students. While the role of the Money Coach has changed throughout the years, the goal has remained the same: To create an opportunity for students to ask questions about finances and help them make informed financial decisions.
