Please read the entire email since it contains important information.

Monthly Reporting Forms and Quarterly Progress Report Due Dates
In order to help EXITO fulfill NIH requirements and to ensure you honor your Scholar Agreement, we need you to submit the following forms:
Fall 2023 Quarterly Progress Report by 6/24
The June MRF is due by 6/24, which records your final RLC hours (5/16-6/24). **We’ve changed the deadline and reporting period for YOUR June MRF. This makes sure you don't have to submit two MRFs.
Final RLC Hours
The last day for you to complete your Winter RLC hours is 06/24/2024.
Financial Support
Stipends
Your last EXITO stipend will be disbursed at the end of May. Since stipends are awarded for the next month’s research training, your May stipend will cover your June research training. **There is NOT a stipend disbursed at the end of June**. There will be a delay in your last stipend if the May MRF is not received on time.
Tuition & Fee Remissions
You received your last EXITO partial tuition and fee remission at the beginning of the Spring 2024 term. After this, you will not receive any additional EXITO tuition or fee remissions. For more information on EXITO financial support please click here.
Resident Tuition Benefit
If you are an EXITO Scholar who transferred to PSU from an EXITO institution and were assessed resident tuition during your traineeship, you will be assessed resident tuition for two years after program completion as long as you are an undergrad.
RLC Placement
The end of your Trainee Appointment, 06/24/24, marks the completion of your formal EXITO Research Learning Community (RLC) placement. After this date, your RLC will not receive funds for your participation and you will no longer receive EXITO funding for research training in the RLC. Any time spent in the RLC after completing the EXITO program will need to be negotiated with the RLC Principal Investigator (PI).
OHSU Jobs
If you are offered a paid position in your RLC (or another OHSU department - if your RLC placement is there), and you plan to start before 06/24/24, email exitooperations@pdx.edu as soon as possible.
Scientific Conference Funds
Cohort 7 Scholars who have not used ALL of their scientific conference travel funds, will have until 6/30/24 to use the funds as long as they are full-time undergrad students and pursuing a biomedical major at the time of the conference. In order to travel in Summer 2024 (6/15-6/30), Trainees must be registered full-time for Fall 2024. Please email exitooperations@pdx.edu for more information.
