First Year Scholarships
Scholarships for first-year students are awarded on the basis
of the student's high school grade point average, ACT or SAT scores, writing
ability and leadership potential. The scholarship application gives a good
overview of each applicant's development in those areas. The First Year College
of Agriculture scholarship application will be available for the 2010-2011 academic year in December 2009.
