Oregon Promise Grant (OPG) Application is Open!
High School and GED July 1, 2026 - June 30, 2027 Graduates
Oregon Promise Grant application has launched for the next round of new high school and GED® test graduates to apply.
The priority group of students who need to submit at this time are high school students who graduate between July 1, 2026 and November 30, 2026. Their deadline to submit BOTH the Oregon Promise application and the 2026-2027 FAFSA/ORSAA (for Winter Term Oregon Promise) has been extended from November 1, 2026 to November 16, 2026. These students will also need their GPAs verified as soon as possible – no senior grades are needed if the transcript will not be available by mid-November for this group of students.
All students who graduate between July 1, 2026 and June 30, 2027 can apply for Oregon Promise NOW! Students must also submit the FAFSA or ORSAA by their applicable deadline, based on their graduation date.
I am a 2026-27 Winter Cohort OPG student, when is my deadline?
- For high school and GED graduates who graduated between July 1, 2026 – November 30, 2026, the deadline to complete both the Oregon Promise application and the FAFSA or ORSAA has been extended to Monday, November 16, 2026.
ORSAA Mixed Status Family Pathway impacts on Oregon Promise eligibility:
Starting with the 2027-28 award year, the Oregon Student Aid Application (ORSAA) will be expanding to include students who identify as being in a mixed status family. In other words, students who are eligible to file a FAFSA, but have a partner, spouse, or parent (also known as a contributor) who does not have a Social Security Number will now be able to submit the ORSAA to be considered for state-administered and some institutional financial aid.
Students from mixed status families will forgo access to all federal aid in addition to Oregon Promise state funds if they decide to file the ORSAA instead of the FAFSA.
*Oregon Law requires all students eligible to file a FAFSA to do so to be eligible for the Oregon Promise Grant.
