The Succeed Program received approval from the United States Department of Education as a Comprehensive Transition and Postsecondary Program (CTP). As a CTP program, students who qualify may receive federal financial aid in the form of the Federal Pell Grant, and the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant. Succeed Students must fill out the FASFA in order to determine eligibility.
Please visit UMSL Student Financial Services website to learn how to fill out the FASFA.
These scholarships are not affiliated with the OIPE, thus we are not responsible for acceptance. But, you can certainly apply their scholarship funds to one of our OIPE college programs (Succeed, Succeed+, or Link).
