Get the support you need
to finish your degree.
Finishing your degree can bring life-changing benefits, including increased pay with a chance to contribute to some of Oklahoma’s most critical workforce needs.
The GEER (Governor’s Emergency Education Relief) Scholarship, a one-time funding opportunity, can ease your financial burden and get you back on a path toward a degree and better career opportunities.
“This scholarship has helped me immensely and has significantly eased the financial burden going back to college had placed on me. The fact that the program is completely remote is perfect as it gives me a way to go to classes and still be able to continue to work. I couldn't have done it so easily and with so little stress without the scholarship.”
- Allyn Wright, OU Online GEER Scholarship Recipient
“As I was looking for a new job, I came across positions which required a bachelor's in healthcare management. Assisting individuals in their most vulnerable state, whether indirectly or directly, would be the most fulfilling job. Without the GEER scholarship, changing careers in my late 40s with family obligations would not be possible.”
- Tama Pham, OU Online GEER Scholarship Recipient
“I am truly grateful to have been awarded the GEER scholarship, as it has significantly relieved the financial burden of pursuing my degree. As a single mom working on commission, the scholarship has allowed me to focus more on my studies and my future career rather than the stress of covering tuition costs.”
- Lillian Sousa, OU Online GEER Scholarship Recipient
