FEE WAIVER INFORMATION:
To continue to keep Morehead State affordable for your students, we’d like to identify those who need assistance with the enrollment and housing fees. We typically rely on FAFSA results to identify students who should qualify for the waiver, but since it will be delayed this year, we need your help. If your students meet the requirements below, have been accepted to MSU and are ready to make their commitment to attend for the Fall 2024 session, please complete this form.
- Students in or are eligible to participate in the federal National School Lunch Program (NSLP).
- Family's annual income falls within the Income Eligibility Guidelines set by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service.

- Students unhoused or reside in federally subsidized public housing or a foster home.
