OCA New Jersey Chapter is pleased to announce our Scholarship Program for 2026.
We continue to offer 2 different scholarship programs. The first is our traditional Essay Scholarship with awards ranging from $3,500 to $300, and the second is for those who better express themselves in a more creative and artistic endeavor which is dedicated to the Spirit of Corky Lee in the amount of $1,500. The application requirements are the same for both awards; however, the submission requirements are different.
Please note that these scholarships are available to all high school seniors of Asian American descent who are full time students and residents of the state of New Jersey who will be attending an accredited institution of higher learning (College, University, Jr./Community College or Trade School). We encourage all eligible students to apply, especially those with greatest financial need.
Parental consent, a letter of recommendation, and an official copy of high school tran- scripts is required. Deadline to apply is Sunday, April 12, 2026.
