One universal application matches Choctaw Nation members, explicitly including graduating high school seniors admitted or planning to enroll for the upcoming fall, to the Chahta Foundation's full roster of named scholarships. Applicants need a 2.5 GPA, a resume, a tribal membership card, and a transcript, plus short-answer responses (250 words or less; some required, some optional) that help the committee match students to the right fund. Some matched awards carry a post-graduation service commitment, disclosed before acceptance, and applicants may decline.
DemographicsMust be a member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, admitted to or planning to enroll in college for the upcoming fall semester.
Award varies by matched fund; the Foundation has awarded over $3 million total, matched up to $5 million by Choctaw Nation.
