I apologize for not getting this information to you sooner, as I'm sure with Spring Break ending you are likely receiving some questions. These messages were purely informational for the students and just serve as reminders that they are enrolled and they need to be sure that they are still on track to complete the program. If you have students/parents who are receiving the wrong message (e.g. a sophomore receiving the message for juniors, updates to email addresses, etc.) please have them contact us by email at okpromise at osrhe.edu and we will get our records updated. They should include the name of the student and the problem they've encountered. Over the next several weeks, we will be sending messages to seniors with INCOMPLETE applications. There will definitely be a sense of urgency to these messages. I will make myself a note to send the text of the message to you later this week before the messages begin. Thank you for your support! MESSAGE TO ALL ENROLLED HS STUDENTS (no juniors): Email: Hi, This is Oklahoma's Promise, the college tuition scholarship program provided through the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.
