This is a reminder of OTAG program deadlines that apply to all participating institutions in Fall 2006.  

Be reminded that each institution initiates their OTAG Award Claim Form process by either submitting a self-generated Award Claim Form (using only OTAG's formatted report template) or by requesting a pre-populated Award Claim Form from OTAG.  It should be noted that pre-populated reports are provided only upon request.

Please contact the OTAG office if you have questions, need additional information or wish to receive a report template or pre-populated report. 

*	October 6, 2006: Each participating institution shall submit an initial fall semester award claim for all eligible OTAG students no later than Friday, October 6, 2006.

*	November 10, 2006: No further requests for awards, or for increases of individual awards already disbursed, for the fall 2006 semester will be accepted after November 10, 2006.
