The scholarship winners will be announced at the NFU Region 1 meeting in the summer of 2012. Funds will be awarded in mid-January, upon successful completion of the first semester of study and commencement of the second semester. A transcript from the first semester will be required. Academic standing, school and community involvement, and financial need will be taken into consideration by the selection committee.
Congratulations to last year’s winners: Harris Bakker of Killoween and Andrew Givskud of Drummond!
