Step 2: Gather your support system

Reach out to family members, friends or co-workers who can give you encouragement, motivation and support. There are also support systems on campus: tutoring, advising, student clubs, internships and mentors keep students engaged in coursework and on track to succeed.

Step 3: Apply for re-admission

If you have been absent for more than three consecutive quarters (not including summer), you will need to fill out the Re-Admit Application. There is no application fee and this will re-activate your student status.

Step 4: Financial aid & scholarships

Apply for federal financial aid at fafsa.ed.gov by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. EOU’s school code is 003193.

Returning students could still qualify for scholarships. Follow the button to see which ones you qualify for.

Step 5: College credit for life experiences

If you have significant life or work experiences, check out EOU’s Assessment of Prior Experiential Learning program and see if you could turn life experience into college credit.
