While this would have been the appropriate action for students to take prior to the award approval process under the old OTAG system, it is no longer a necessary action. OTAG is tracking applicants under ALL eligible Oklahoma school codes they have reported to the CPS. To add a school to their OTAG record, students need only to report the additional school code to the CPS in order to notify OTAG. OTAG will automatically receive the additional school code on a subsequent ISIR transaction; the school will automatically be added to the student's OTAG record; and the student's application and OTAG status information will automatically appear on subsequent Eligibility Status Reports forwarded to the new school. We are loading ISIRs into the database on a daily basis, and will continue to do so throughout the entire award year. Be aware that the OTAG award notice will continue to advise awardees to notify OTAG if they decide to attend a school other than the one reflected on their OTAG award notice. The student will then be advised appropriately according to whether or not their new school is already reflected on their OTAG record. If the student's first contact regarding their AWARD transfer is with the new school, the most efficient way to assist the student would be for the school to submit an update, reporting the transfer as well as "packaged" status to OTAG. Please pass this information along to your staff members who are in positions to advise students regarding the OTAG application process. As always, if you have questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the OTAG office. *********************** Shiela Joyner, Director Oklahoma Tuition Aid Grant Program Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education P.

Since I'm known for laying it on the line, here's my take on the OU job posting: a) yes, there is a University policy about doing a search for administrative & executive level positions, so yes, there is an issue of protocol. b) no, we're not posting it just for protocol's sake. We really are serious about this search, and I've been excited that we are going to do it since Matt got promoted back in November. In fact, I've been an absolute NAG (me at work, a pregnant wife at home, the poor guy gets it coming & going....). c) no, I will not apply. (Actually, I said "do you see CRAZY written across my forehead?", but then somebody said YES.....) I HAVE the job I want, the director's job here is a lot more than I can or want to do! I have NO DESIRE to manage a big budget & deal with the president & all that stuff....I LIKE sitting in my corner, figuring out policy & operations issues. I've found my "niche" and if I can just stop eating so much, I should continue to fit in it for quite a while. Of course, I don't get the really good seats in the stadium like Matt does......but then, not every year is a national championship season, either. So, if you're considering applying and are worried you will hurt my feelings, don't be. I'm really not that sensitive and I'm feeling JUST FINE....however, Matthew is looking PRETTY pooped.
