Through ODU’s Refer a Panther program, we invite alumni, faculty and staff to show their support for a student in their life by helping to introduce them to the life-changing impact of an ODU education. Students who enroll at ODU full time after being referred will receive a generous scholarship package. And to make sure they understand your role in their ODU journey, up to $6,000 of the financial aid they receive over their four years ($1,500 per year) will be in your name!

Have a sibling, child or grandchild interested in attending ODU?
As a Legacy, they're already eligible to receive $6,000 in their financial aid package via our Legacy program. That means you can use your referral for a friend, neighbor – anyone! Just make sure your family member identifies themselves as being a Legacy when they complete their application to ODU.
