As a College of Agriculture and Life Sciences student, you have access to well over $4.5 million in scholarships offered through more than 700 individual scholarship portfolios. Each of these programs represents the college, individual donors, corporations and friends of the college making an investment in your success.

While many awards are intended to reward academic performance, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is proud that our scholarship opportunities reflect the student experiences you value. In addition to academics, scholarships support activities like study abroad, leadership in student organizations, service to the college, undergraduate research and professional development opportunities. And when things don’t go according to plan, there are resources available that help eliminate financial barriers.
