Are you interested in preparing for a career in agriculture or a related field? Then this guide, just released from Reference Service Press, is for you!
In the 2008-2010 edition of How to Pay for Your Degree in Agriculture & Related Fields, you'll have--right at your finger tips--information on nearly a billion dollars set aside specifically for students working on a 2-year, 4-year, master's, or doctoral degree in agricultural science, animal science, apiculture, ranching, cooperative extension, dairy science, agricultural economics, crops or soils science, enology/viticulture, horticulture, and many other related fields.
Only the biggest and best funding programs are described in this book. To be listed here, a program has to offer students in agriculture or releated fields at least $1,000 per year. Close to 80% go beyond that, paying up to $5,000 or more annually, or covering the full cost of college attendance. In all, more than 600 state-wide and national scholarships, fellowships, grants, loans, and awards are targeted here.
Each program description is prepared from current material supplied by the sponsoring organization. In seconds, you can read about the purpose, eligibility, monetary award, duration, special features, limitations, number awarded, and deadline date for any program that interests you. Plus, the book is organized so you can search for aid by type (scholarships, fellowships, loans, grants, etc.), program title, sponsor, residency, tenability, agricultural specialty, and even deadline date.
No other directory comes close to providing the kind of comprehensive coverage you'll find here! In all, more than 750 agriculture-related funding opportunities are described in detail.
