Tulsa Community College Launches TCC Advantage Scholarship

Tulsa Community College introduces the TCC Advantage Scholarship program, a new scholarship for eligible students at Broken Arrow, Charles Page, Jenks, and Sapulpa high schools beginning in Fall 2025. This scholarship will cover tuition and mandatory fees for one academic year, expanding college access for students outside Tulsa County.

Tulsa Community College is launching the TCC Advantage Scholarship program, a new scholarship for eligible students at Broken Arrow, Charles Page, Jenks, and Sapulpa high schools. Beginning Fall 2025, this scholarship will cover tuition and mandatory fees for one academic year, expanding college access for students outside Tulsa County.

As an institutionally funded scholarship, TCC Advantage awards are limited and will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Students must reside in Creek, Osage, or Wagoner counties, and scholarship recipients will be required to enroll in at least nine credit hours per semester, including a mandatory college success course.

“We have been working for some time on establishing a scholarship that complements Tulsa Achieves, and this is the result,” said TCC CEO and President Leigh Goodson, Ph.D. “This opportunity for additional students outside Tulsa County ensures that more students have access to the high-quality education that TCC provides. We believe this initiative will have a lasting impact on students, families, and the broader community.”

TCC Advantage is open to eligible students graduating in 2025 from Broken Arrow High School, Charles Page High School, Jenks High School, and Sapulpa High School, or students from these high schools who graduated in 2024 and took a gap year from school. Applicants are required to have an unweighted GPA of at least 2.0 and have completed a FAFSA application.

“This initiative reflects TCC’s commitment to increasing college access and affordability in northeast Oklahoma. By offering one academic year at a greatly reduced cost, we are opening doors for more students to have the opportunity to succeed in higher education,” said TCC Vice President of Student Success and Chief Student Affairs Officer Eunice Tarver, Ph.D.

Applications for TCC Advantage are open now. The deadline to apply is Aug. 1, 2025.
