The Federal Work Study Research Assistantship (FWS-RA) application deadline has been extended to Sept. 19.

This program allows faculty from across the college to request an eligible undergrad or grad student as a research assistant to advance their scholarship and creative activities. Up to 12 assistantships ($2,000 each) will be funded. The Student Office of Research and Creative Activities (ORCA) and the Financial Aid Office coordinate this program.

The Adult Student Assistance Program (ASAP) will sponsor an online session tonight (Wednesday, Sept. 7) at 7 p.m. for those with questions about financial aid or student accounts.

Online registration is still available via this link.

ASAP is designed to help adult learners connect with SUNY Oswego and other students.
