Scholarship Information
There are two basic ways to apply. One, go to the Financial Aid Office and fill out the University Scholarship Application as well as the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). While there, check the list of currently available outside scholarships as well. Two, go to the Horticultural & Crop Science Department office or individual faculty to obtain descriptions and applications for scholarships awarded outside the university both within the state and nation. You may be eligible for several of them.

To IMPROVE your chances, fill
out the application completely, accurately, neatly AND follow these
guidelines: |
Order transcripts from all colleges/universities you have attended. This may take some TIME, so do it first! Some scholarship committees look favorably upon employment in the industry and activities showing achievements in horticulture. Does your ACADEMIC GOALS STATEMENT fit the scholarship organization? (If applying to the nursery industry for a scholarship your goal should not indicate landscape architecture, retail florist, etc.) Applications must be TYPED (or CLEARLY PRINTED). LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION. If you need two references, consider requesting three references so you have at least two. ALSO, hey must be current letters on official stationary. It would be best if at least one were a Cal Poly EHS instructor. REVIEW YOUR APPLICATION with your academic advisor before mailing. Be sure to SIGN your application and put POSTAGE on the envelope.
WE WISH YOU THE BEST! WE KNOW YOU NEED THE MONEY AND
ARE DESERVING. |
