The Independent Professional Seed Association is pleased to announce the opening of the scholarship period for the 2022/2023 school year. Working with the IPSA Education Committee, the IPSA Board will award ten $2,000 scholarships to students studying in the field of agriculture.
Both high school seniors and active college students majoring in Agriculture are encouraged to apply. The IPSA Board of Directors encourages all members to send this application to customers and friends, your local high school FFA chapters and, 4-H Clubs. We believe this scholarship process is a benefit to all IPSA Member Companies.
After the success of the online application, the IPSA Education Committee has once again worked to make this a smooth process by employing an online application via SurveyMonkey. Send all applicants to this apply here.
Please keep in mind, in addition to the application online, the most recent student transcripts and 2 letters of recommendation must be uploaded for each applicant. PDF is the preferred version.
The IPSA scholarship program was created by the Myron "Ted" Asplin Family to benefit the future of agriculture by supporting and encouraging the education of future ag professionals.
The size and number of awards may vary each year, depending upon fund earnings.
This year we have again included an option in the application process for students to indicate interest in internship opportunities with IPSA member companies. Member companies interested in being matched with potential internship applicants should email Todd or Julianne.
Applications are due to IPSA by April 30, and award winners will be announced by June 1.
Scholarship recipients will be required to attend the annual IPSA meeting in January to receive their award. Travel expenses will be covered.
