Who can qualify?

To advance our mission of supporting education, youth and research, the Angus Foundation is extending the scholarship program to young men and women utilizing Angus sires or dams in their commercial operation. These youth and/or their parents/guardians must use Angus genetics in their breeding program. Youth eligible are pursuing an undergraduate degree or a vocational program at an accredited institution of higher education. Applications are due May 1st and winners will be notified in July or earlier.

Once a qualified applicant's application has been determined complete and eligible for review, it will be considered by the Angus Foundation's Scholarship Selection Committee comprised of two Angus Foundation representatives, two Angus industry representatives and one beef cattle industry leader. Emphasis will be placed on an applicant's knowledge of the cattle industry and their perspective of the Angus breed.

Application deadline is May 1. Recipients will be announced and recognized annually in July.
