Scholarships

Oregon State University is committed to recruiting and retaining motivated, diverse, and driven students. One of the ways we do this is with scholarship opportunities. The College of Forestry offers a wide range of scholarships to continuing and first-year students (including transfer students). Most university and college awards are based on a combination of academic merit and financial need. For additional information on scholarship opportunities available through the university, please visit the OSU Financial Aid & Scholarships page.
