“As a full-time working professional, taking classes online was the best option for my busy schedule. EOU’s remarkable staff made my transition seamless and the instructors challenged me to succeed. Even though the tuition is already very affordable, there were many scholarship opportunities that helped me finance my education. I had such a positive experience that I decided to continue my education with EOU’s MBA program this fall.”

Ways to Save with EOU Online

EOU remains an affordable option for you through financial aid, scholarships and benefits for U.S. military service members and veterans.

FAFSA®

The federal government awards financial aid for college through the FAFSA®, which we recommend that you complete. This determines the amount of federal financial aid for which you are eligible.

Complete your FAFSA® as soon as possible, beginning December of each year, so that you have plenty of time to accept your awards and determine your costs.

When prompted on the application, use EOU’s federal school code: 003193.
