Understanding Financial Assistance

At Oakland University, we support you every step of the way to make sure you understand the financial assistance process and all the options available to help pay for higher education. We work with you to:

• apply for financial assistance and decide which offer is right for you
• help you manage your financing and payment options while at Oakland
• explain your student account, and OU’s billing and payment processes
• provide you with tools to find scholarship opportunities 
• establish healthy financial habits and goals with your future in mind

This holistic approach ensures you have a plan of action for the cost of your degree.
