Thank you to the many counselors who submitted Student Program Verification Forms and transcripts. We appreciate your partnership and the important role you play in helping Oklahoma students access Oklahoma's Promise and other higher education opportunities.
We couldn't do it without you!</div>

This year, we took a different approach and distributed our entire supply of standard Oklahoma's Promise flyers during the initial mailing rather than holding back inventory for future requests. Our goal is to ensure that as many materials as possible reach
students instead of remaining in storage. As a result, additional standard flyers will be unavailable. However, we will continue to have paper applications, Spanish-language flyers, and posters available upon request. All Oklahoma's Promise materials are also
available digitally on our website for download.</div>
