The Alberta Excellence in Agriculture Scholarship was established by the Alberta Wheat Board Monies Trust to encourage academic excellence of students currently enrolled in a post-secondary program in a discipline related to the field of agriculture. Applicants must have attended fall and winter terms in the previous academic year and be currently enrolled in the second or subsequent year of undergraduate post-secondary study in a diploma or degree program at a publicly funded post-secondary institution in a discipline related to agriculture. The recipient will be selected on the basis of academic achievement and enrolment in a discipline related to agriculture. Preference will be given to students who have completed the Green Certificate Program. There are four scholarships available; two for students in a diploma program, and two for students in a degree program. Applicants must be Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Protected Persons. Visa students are not eligible. Applications and required documents may be submitted online and through mail. Students may receive $1500 CAD. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information about the eligibility requirements.
