Northwest Mississippi Community College granted Associate Degrees to 11 Oxford High Scholastic Institute students.
The seniors completed the coursework as full-time college students while completing their high school graduation requirements and have been awarded $323,000 in scholarships to continue their college education.
Scholastic Institute students are full-time college students at Northwest Mississippi Community College. Courses are offered on the OHS campus, through NWCC’s e-learning platform, and face-to-face at NWCC’s Oxford campus.
