Morehead State January Update


 Hello from Morehead State University! My name is Chloe Marstiller, and I am a new Enrollment Counselor with MSU; I will be your go-to person for the rest of the school year in regards to your journeys with Morehead State

 

ACCEPTED STUDENTS: Students who have been accepted can find their next enrolment steps at www.moreheadstate.edu/whatsnext. The next step is to submit their $75 enrollment fee, register for SOAR, and complete the housing application. If you have students who may be eligible for veteran/GI Bill benefits, please have them contact Jeremy Glover at jglover@moreheadstate.edu.


ENROLLMENT FEE/WAIVER: As in the past, we will require a $75 enrollment fee prior to registering for SOAR. Students can submit their enrollment fee at www.moreheadstate.edu/confirm.

 

For those students who need assistance with the enrollment and housing fees and meet one of the guidelines below, please complete this form and we will add a waiver to their account.

·         Students who are eligible for 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.

·         Enrolled in a federal, state, or local program that aids students from low-income families (e.g., TRIO programs like Upward Bound).

·         Family receives public assistance.

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

·         Ward of the state or an orphan

 

SOAR REGISTRATION:  Students will be able to register for SOAR (freshman orientation) beginning January 9 at https://www.moreheadstate.edu/student-support/first-year-programs/soar/fall-sessions. SOAR dates are below, and students should attend the earliest session possible to ensure the best selection of classes. I encourage students to attend an in-person session and bring a parent/guardian if possible.

SCHOLARSHIPS: Accepted students have until August 2024 to meet eligibility requirements for our merit-based scholarships – attached are the scholarships for your convenience.  https://www.moreheadstate.edu/admissions/scholarships/kentucky

Additional MSU Foundation Scholarships – We offer over 400 privately-funded scholarships via the MSU Foundation. Students can complete one simple application to determine their eligibility at https://www.moreheadstate.edu/admissions/scholarships/foundation-scholarships

 

RECRUITMENT EVENTS: We plan to host several in-person events that will allow your students to visit campus this spring. Below is information regarding these upcoming events, and we’d love to have your students join us.


Open House:  Saturday, Feb. 10 (Main Campus) 10am-2pm  

 

Additional evening receptions will be planned soon.

 

FREE ONLINE APPLICATION: In addition to our traditional online application, we are excited to announce we are now on the Common App! Students can apply at www.moreheadstate.edu/apply or https://www.commonapp.org/explore/morehead-state-university. We will continue to offer a free application, and only request HS transcripts for processing. We will again be test blind for admission purposes – reviewing admission applications based solely on a student’s high school unweighted GPA. We will continue to use ACT/SAT composite scores and unweighted high school GPA to determine scholarship eligibility. Students will be unconditionally accepted with a 2.5+ GPA (2.0 – 2.49 will be accepted conditionally).  

 

CAMPUS VISITS: We offer daily in-person campus visits Monday-Friday and students will need to register at www.moreheadstate.edu/visit to arrange a time to check out campus. They will be able to meet one-on-one with faculty members, tour campus, visit our wellness and recreation center, see beautiful Eagle Lake, and much more! Additionally, if you’d like to bring a group of students to campus, we’d love to host you! To arrange your group visit please click here. We do have some funds available to help with bus transportation.

 

I encourage you and your students to follow @MoreheadStateAdmissions on all social media platforms to stay current on Morehead State news, upcoming deadlines, and chances to win weekly giveaways.  I look forward to working with you and your students very soon!  If you or parents/students have any questions or concerns, as always, please feel free to contact me via cell or e-mail – have a great week!
