Omaha Tribe Higher Education Scholarship Program

About This Opportunity

The Omaha Tribe of Nebraska administers the Higher Education Program to provide financial assistance to eligible Omaha Indian students pursuing a degree or eligible certificate. Funding is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis for full-time students, covering tuition, fees, and books based on unmet financial need. Part-time students may receive funding for books, tuition, and fees only. Additional TC Energy scholarships ($2,500–$5,000) are available for trades, Indigenous legacy, and STEM fields. Applications must be submitted with a complete financial aid package — contact the Higher Ed Office for current requirements.
