Oakton Scholarship Home
Scholarships have been established through the generosity of businesses, associations and individuals. These scholarships reward student achievement, encourage student leadership and accomplishment, and provide financial assistance.
All awards are based on the availability of funds. Some scholarships provide partial funding for tuition fees; others provide for additional expenses.
Scholarship

Selection
The Scholarship Selection
Committee notifies all scholarship applicants of award decisions by June.
Oakton scholarships are generally awarded for one academic year (two semesters).
