The Southwest Oklahoma Chapter Area Scholarship Program was established to assist deserving area students in furthering their education at an accredited college or university. These scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic achievement, US armed services affiliation of their sponsor, exemplary citizenship and personal merit.

Our chapter annually awards a number of individual scholarships valued at $1,000. Scholarships awarded under the 2025 program must be used for school year 2025-2026. Scholarships may be used toward tuition, fees, room and board or books. Scholarship funds will be deposited with the registrar, bursar or the financial assistance office of the college or university of the respective scholarship awardees.
