OKCGo Program
2025 High School Graduates
Are you graduating from an Oklahoma City or Western Heights public school in 2025? If so, now is the time to take advantage of OCCC’s OKCGo Program!
Details
The OKCGo Program is available to eligible high school graduates from Oklahoma City Public High Schools, selected public charter high schools, and Western Heights Public High School. This is part of a financial aid package for the completion of one associate’s degree (AAS, AA, or AS) at OCCC with a maximum award of 63 credit hours over five semesters. The purpose of the program is to help students receiving partial or no financial grants or scholarships pay for college. The program covers any tuition that is remaining after all other grants, OK Promise, OTAG, and other scholarships are applied to a student's account. Students who receive a Pell Grant will receive a $500 tuition waiver per semester, while those who do not qualify for Pell will have their tuition covered up to $1,800 per semester. Students are responsible for fees and books.
Students must submit the OKCGo application, OCCC admissions application, and complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by the award deadline of July 15, 2025. Students must enter OCCC the Fall semester immediately following high school graduation. Summer courses are not covered by OKCGo.
