Current Students DPP Application Steps
As an OSU-Cascades and COCC Dual Partnership Program you are now admitted to two schools. You have the option of taking classes at both OSU-Cascades and COCC. You will need to pick one of the following options for your enrollment:
This will depend on many factors such as scholarships, financial aid package, and your chosen academic program among others. Once you have determined which route is the right one for you we will assist you with the next steps all along the way.
You can follow your options on our DPP flowchart with lots of great information.
If you are not an admitted student yet please visit our DPP Admissions webpage for how to get started.
Students participating in the DPP program will need to determine whether OSU-Cascades or COCC will be their Home School for financial aid purposes. The Home School is the institution that will pay out your financial aid to your student account.
After your register for your first OSU-Cascades course you will be emailed a survey where you can declare your Home School as either OSU-Cascades or as COCC. You can also access the survey at a later time through your MyOSU account should your Home School plans change.
If you're taking all your classes at COCC you have to make COCC as your home school by contacting COCC's financial aid office.
It is recommended that you do not change your home school during the academic year to avoid delays in the disbursement of your financial aid.
Note: If you are accepting the Oregon Promise award COCC must be your Home School.
For more information on Financial related to the DPP with COCC program please visit our DPP Financial Aid webpage.
Scholarships from both OSU-Cascades and COCC require a student to be enrolled in a combined minimum number of credits. Please be sure to check with the financial aid office at the institution awarding the scholarship to make sure you meet the minimum number of credits required. You can use the chart below as a guide to see what combined credits are required:

All admitted first-year OSU-Cascades students are required to live in an on-campus facility. Since you are participating in the Dual Partnership Program with COCC you may choose to stay in either the OSU-Cascades or COCC residence halls. In either case, however, you must submit a residence hall application.
Students coming from within a 45 mile radius of Bend may apply for an exemption but they still must submit a residency hall application with OSU-Cascades.
After your exemption has been granted you will be allowed to live at an approved exemption site or at the on-campus residence halls at COCC.
For DPP students partnering with one of our 18 other partner schools you will have access to academic advising here at OSU-Cascades. If you have any questions about courses or would like to speak to an advisor here at OSU-Cascades please contact Dianna McGinnis. Working with an academic advisor will help you plan when you should begin taking OSU classes toward your major.
It is very important to make sure the classes you take at your partner school will transfer and count towards your OSU degree. Here are some ways to do that.
