Getting Started
MyPortal
MyPortal is your one-stop source for managing your student’s Opportunity Scholarship.
The purpose of the MyPortal Guide for Parents is to provide step-by-step instructions to guide parents through important steps of the award process, including how to:
- create an account
- complete an application
- check a student’s eligibility status
- check/complete required tasks
- select/change your active school
- upload documents
- review notifications
- update your email address
Accept or Decline Your Award
You will have a deadline to accept or decline your student’s award in MyPortal. If you have multiple children who received an award offer, you must respond to each separately. For assistance on how to accept or decline an award, see the short video provided below. The slide tutorial “After an Award: What are the next steps?” contains instructions on how to respond to an award offer, choose a school, complete income verification, and pay the school.
