Scholarship Deadline Extended

There’s now more time to get your name in for one of five $1,000 one-year scholarships.

BASFThe deadline for NCGA’s Academic Excellence in Agriculture Scholarship Program, sponsored by BASF, has been extended to February 1. NCGA says the deadline was extended at the request of college financial aid administrators.

Applicants must be entering at least their second undergraduate year, pursuing a degree in an agriculture-related field, and they or a parent or legal guardian must be an NCGA member. Entries must be postmarked Friday, Feb. 1, at the latest. Complete rules are in the application packet at www.ncga.com/scholarship, and winners will be notified in February and recognized at the Commodity Classic in Nashville.
