How will I be notified?
Award decisions will be made on a rolling basis in spring 2025. If you receive a scholarship, you will be notified via mail or email.

Log back into your scholarship dashboard after June 1st to learn the status of your applications if you did not receive a notification.

If you are selected for a scholarship, you will need to complete a few follow-up items for the award to be paid directly to your college during the fall 2025-spring 2026 academic year.

Transforming Futures

When Businesswoman Elaine Hahn passed away, her sister Kathy knew how important education was to Elaine. To honor Elaine’s legacy, she established the Elaine Hahn Memorial Business Scholarship at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation for young women who plan to attend college and study business. Students receiving the scholarship often graduate debt-free, which is important for Kathy.
