Martin Luther King, Jr. Scholarship

The Martin Luther King, Jr. Scholarship is awarded annually to a student from a Newton County high school who attends Oxford College. This full-tuition award is presented on the basis of financial need and merit and continues to Emory College or Goizueta Business School. Students must maintain a 3.2 GPA to continue as MLK Scholars. Newton County citizens created this scholarship in response to the annual King celebration in January.
