“There are numerous opportunities for students to qualify for both financial assistance and scholarships,” Horinek said. “Here at OCCC we don’t want the cost of tuition or additional financial barriers to keep students from academic success and meeting their career goals. High school seniors should take advantage of this scholarship and apply now.”
