NEO Development announces the Vickie Bagby Cousatte Memorial Scholarship

The Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College Development Foundation is proud to announce the establishment of the Vickie Bagby Cousatte Memorial Scholarship.

The family of Vickie Cousatte is honoring her legacy of love and generosity through the creation of a new scholarship at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. Established by her husband, Art, this scholarship aims to support NEO students who are balancing the responsibilities of family and work life.

Vickie, an NEO alumna, was a remarkable woman whose compassion and commitment to helping others left a lasting impact on her community and family. Vickie’s family hopes that this scholarship will continue her legacy by assisting students, especially those who face unique challenges while completing their studies.

The scholarship provides a minimum of $1,000 per academic year. To apply, students must be enrolled at NEO A&M College and maintain a minimum GPA of 2.0. Applicants are also required to submit an essay detailing their life circumstances and financial needs.

To celebrate Vickie’s life and legacy, a reception will be held on Friday, November 8, at 11:30 a.m. in Commons Hall. Friends, family, and community members are invited to join in remembering Vickie’s contributions and celebrating the scholarship’s impact on future generations of NEO students.
