OHKAY OWINGEH SCHOLARSHIP
GENERAL INFORMATION
NATURE OF THE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
The Pueblo of San Juan Department of Education, governed by the Ohkay Owingeh Board of Education, has developed a scholarship through funds set aside by the Tribal Council. These funds are available to Ohkay Owingeh tribal members and are not intended to replace other sources of aid such as Pell Grant, SEOG, SSIG, CWS, and Veterans Benefits, etc. The Board of Education has the authority to set guidelines, by-laws, policies, procedures, and review and act upon all scholarship applications.
The Ohkay Owingeh Scholarship was established with the intent of financially assisting each student/member of Ohkay Owingeh who is seeking a first time certificate or undergraduate college degree. The Tribal Scholarship will not be based on a financial needs analysis form. Recipients are determined through a first-come, first-serve basis. The scholarship program provides funding assistance to 30 applicants per award period for the Fall and Spring semester.
The summer semester is determined on fund availability.
