Arkansas Farm Bureau Scholarship Foundation Scholarships

This is a college scholarship for Arkansas residents who are juniors or seniors pursuing an agricultural or agriculture-related degree at an Arkansas university. Applicants must be active Arkansas Farm Bureau members, or the child or grandchild of one. Selection is based on academic achievement, character, leadership, career plans and financial need.

• College junior or senior with a minimum of two full semesters required for completion of their degree

• Arkansas resident, actively pursuing an agricultural or agricultural-related degree and enrolled in an Arkansas university

• Active Arkansas Farm Bureau member or the child or grandchild of an active Arkansas Farm Bureau member

• Minimum 2.5 GPA, maintained at the end of the Fall semester to receive the Spring semester portion

The Spring semester portion ($1500) depends on keeping a minimum 2.5 GPA at the end of the Fall semester.

Published amounts: AWARD UP TO: $3,000 PER SEMESTER; the Spring semester portion is stated as ($1500). The PDF contradicts itself: the header says up to $3,000 per semester, but the Spring portion is $1,500. That suggests $3,000 per year paid in two $1,500 halves.

Download the application PDF from the scholarships page. Mail it to Arkansas Farm Bureau, Attn: Lori Croy, P.O. Box 31, Little Rock, AR 72203, or email it to lori.croy@arfb.com. Include official college transcripts, three typed reference letters on letterhead (at least one from a university faculty member) and a current headshot. All materials must be received by April 15.
