Applicants should have a sound academic background, exhibit leadership qualities, be an active 4-H member, demonstrate financial need, be of good character and have participated in school and/or community activities.
To be considered for this scholarship, an applicant must:
1. Be an actively involved member in a Bastrop County 4-H club and attend high school in Bastrop County.
2. Be accepted/enrolled in a recognized vocational school or college.
3. Maintain a grade point average above the level that would result in scholastic probation.
An applicant will be given consideration for the scholarship when all the following have been received by the scholarship committee:
1. A completed application form
2. A transcript for all academic work, grade-point average and college admissions scores.
3. Current year 4-H Recordbook
After completing an interview with the scholarship committee, scholarship recipients will be announced at the 4-H Banquet in the fall. The scholarship money will be awarded to the recipient upon presentation of a current registration receipt from the school of higher education or a check will be made out to the school on behalf of the student. Applications must be completed and received by the Extension office in June when 4-H Recordbooks are due.
