Six Easy Steps to OBU Financial Aid

Apply
Apply for admission to OBU and submit the required documents.

Receive
You will receive a letter from the Office of Student Financial Services soon after your acceptance letter. This letter will indicate your academic scholarship and any denominational awards for which you qualify according to our records.

Submit
You must complete the FAFSA. If you do not submit FAFSA information to us, we aren't able to offer you the best financial aid package possible. Make sure you use OBU’s school code, 003164, so that we get your information.
