The Texas 4-H Youth Development Foundation is once again
pleased to offer senior high school 4-H members and current college students
the opportunity to apply for an Opportunity Scholarship. Texas 4-H members
can apply for scholarships in three areas, baccalaureate, courageous heart, and
technical. Former Texas 4-H members will be able to apply for scholarships
through the collegiate scholarship program.
Changes for the 2019 Texas 4-H Opportunity Scholarship
Process:
- All
applications (except collegiate) must be submitted through 4-H CONNECT.
Reminders:
- Applicants must work
directly with their school administrators to ensure they have quartile
ranking for their application. A quartile ranking is required to be
considered for a Texas 4-H Opportunity Scholarship.
- Any incomplete or
incorrect application submitted will not be considered. It is
the responsibility of the 4-H member and parent/guardian to ensure all
information is correct and complete prior to submitting. Absolutely
no follow up or updates will be allowed once submitted.
APPLICATION
All applications (except
collegiate) must be submitted through 4-H CONNECT and meet all criteria
