Scholarships

Our most important goal is to encourage study in the field of advertising. Our industry is only as good as the people who are in it, and today’s advertising student is tomorrow’s advertising professional. AAF Tulsa awards several scholarships to advertising students attending college in Oklahoma each year.

Scholarship Guidelines

  • Student must be enrolled in a minimum of 12 hours in undergraduate studies leading to a career in advertising or marketing;
  • The student must display excellent oral and written communication skills;
  • The student must be a sophomore, junior or senior;
  • Scholarship funds must be used for tuition at an Oklahoma institution;
  • AAF Tulsa prefers that students have an overall 3.0 grade point average, but those students with financial need who fall below a 3.0 are encourage to apply;
  • The student must agree to assist AAF Tulsa on projects;
  • The student must complete an application and submit it with a letter of recommendation from one of the student’s professors. A letter from an internship supervisor is recommended, but not required.
