This scholarship is awarded each year to high-achieving high school seniors entering 91Ó°ÊÓ. 91Ó°ÊÓ is allowed a certain number of institutional nominees. The number of nominees varies from year to year. The Academic Scholars Program was created and funded by the Oklahoma Legislature and is administered by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education as an incentive for students of high academic ability to attend higher education institutions in Oklahoma. The scholarship pays full tuition plus a generous stipend, and it covers eight semesters of higher education, provided the recipient remains enrolled full-time in an Oklahoma college or university and meets all other continuing eligibility requirements. 

These scholarships are presented each year to select Honors Scholars.
