Office of Scholarships

At NSU, 94 percent of our beginning undergraduate students receive some form of financial aid, with 65 percent receiving state or local government grants or scholarships.

Financial need and merit are the main factors that are considered for the awarding of grants and scholarships. “Merit-based” aid is given to students who do well in academics, leadership, community services and other areas. “Need-based” aid is given to students who lack the financial resources needed to go to college. Unfortunately, each year, the demand for both kinds of aid is much greater than available funds.

The NSU Office of Scholarships is ready to assist students in learning more about applying and earning scholarships at NSU. The main office is located on the Tahlequah campus in the CASE building on the second floor and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Light the way emergency fund

In celebration of the 125th anniversary of Seminary Hall, President Steve Turner issued a challenge to the Northeastern State University Centurions and President’s Circle donors to establish an emergency fund for NSU students in need. This new funding source is designed to assist students (undergraduate and graduate) during times of crisis in order for them to maintain their enrollment. It is designed to enable a student to meet a short-term financial hardship and is maintained by the Northeastern State University Foundation.
