IMPORTANT Oregon NG State TA Change!! With the increased participation and great success of the ONGSTA program, OSAC has determined that the ONGSTA program may be facing insufficient allocated funds to fully support the program for the remaining academic year. OSAC’s priority is to fully fund the tuition award amount for the next two terms. However, depending on legislative funding support and if it is determined that there is insufficient program funding, our first course of action required by statute (ORS 348.268(6)) is to implement cost saving measures for the remaining academic year which is to provide tuition funding but not provide funding for fees and the book allowance. If you have been determined to be eligible to receive ONGSTA funding, you will be receiving tuition funding only for the winter term.
Please reach out to OSAC with any questions at [email protected].

Yesterday marked the 249th Birthday of the navy.
The Naval Act of 1794 authorized the building of the legendary six
frigates and permanently established the Navy under the U.S.
Constitution, which is still afloat today.

Stop by the VRC for some cake and coffee,

Special thanks to SOU Theater Department for the form to display the uniform.

Today, we proudly celebrate 249 years of honor, courage, and commitment from the men and women of the U.S. Navy. At Student Veterans of America, we salute all Navy veterans and active-duty sailors who continue to serve our nation, both at sea and on shore.

From protecting freedom across the globe to leading in classrooms here at home, Navy veterans embody leadership, resilience, and excellence in all they do.

Understanding your award letter 📃🙋🏽‍♂️❓

VA often receives calls and inquiries about dates given on award letters.

Recent updates to the GI Bill Award Letter has many wondering why their payment is “late". VA is here to help explain!

On your Award Letter, the payment date is the day VA systems reported the funds to the US Treasury for distribution.

Federal benefits, like the GI Bill, are paid by the US Treasury. Once VA has notified the US Treasury, it then takes 3-5 business days for the US Treasury to release the funds to you.

If you need assistance or have questions on your benefits, please use the link to Ask VA: https://ask.va.gov/

We know that a great cup of coffee is often the fuel that powers our student veterans through late-night study sessions, early morning classes, and everything in between. Every sip of Hanx Coffee supports veterans, with proceeds going directly toward initiatives that empower and uplift our community.

This National Coffee Day, celebrate with a cup of Hanx For Our Troops Coffee and know that with each brew, you’re supporting veterans in their journey to success. Together, we’re making a difference—one cup at a time.
