Affording a college education is a challenge, but it doesn't have to be. Your union is here to help! Through the union's Les Best Scholarship Program, OCSEA awards a total of $12,000 annually in college scholarships. That pot of scholarship money is for eligible dues-paying members who are taking college courses as well as their college-enrolled spouses and college-bound dependents.
The application process is easy! But don't delay! The deadline to apply for the Les Best Scholarship is April 30, 2021. All dues-paying members, as well as their dependents and spouses are eligible to apply each year.
Apply now at OCSEA.org/LesBest. Winners will be notified in early June after a panel of independent judges completes the application judging process. Winners' scholarships are sent to the schools in August to be used toward tuition.
