ENACTMENT & REVISION HISTORY
(The Chancellor presented a Campaign for Excellence to the Oregon State Board
of Higher Education at its Meeting #494 on October 22, 1982, pp. 468-470. An
important element in the Campaign for Excellence was referred to as the Oregon
Presidential Scholarship Program, and the nonresident scholar plan was an
outgrowth of that proposal.)
POLICY
Awards in the amount of $1,000 (as a deduction against the out-of-state instruction fee), renewable for
a maximum of four years, are granted to attract highly qualified nonresident scholars who might
otherwise elect not to attend System institutions because of the high nonresident instruction fee. A
maximum of $500,000 plus the number of continuing students times $1,000 in nonresident fee
remission is available for this purpose each year.

The institutions shall establish standards and procedures for administering the award program, including
criteria to determine outstanding academic programs (high school grades) and potential for college
success (test scores) and indication that the student probably would not attend or continue without this
incentive. Scholarships continue for students enrolled in good standing as long as the student is
classified as a nonresident. Students who become resident students for fee purposes are no longer
eligible for the Oregon Honors Scholarship Program.
Institutions shall record the basis on which academic potential was determined and track the continued
enrollment for each recipient. Quota use (new and continuing students) shall be reported to the Office
of Academic Affairs annually. Unused quota in a given year will not be continued into an ensuing year.
Students who received Oregon Honors Scholarships in 1983-84 and 1984-85, and who are currently
enrolled, will be reported in the quota use tally; students who received residency exceptions based on
merit in 1983-84 and 1984-85 will not be reported in the continuing quota count.
