– Deadlines Extended –

Due to the delay in FAFSA data being supplied to the University of Oregon, the UO is extending the confirmation deadline to June 1, 2024, for first-year students admitted for fall 2024. We are also extending the priority FAFSA filing deadline to April 1, 2024, for all UO students.

Embracing the Future

UO Duck Mascot looking towards you, with the words "Embracing the Future" displayed.

Embracing the Future is the University of Oregon’s spring campus visit program for admitted students and their families designed for individuals who identify as students of color and come from a broad range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds. This is your opportunity to learn about support services for our diverse student population, housing, financial aid, and student life at the UO. It also gives you the opportunity to connect with members of the university community, to ask questions, and to determine if the UO is right for you.
