2026 Ag Partners Scholarship Program

Application must be postmarked by March 1, 2026

Accepting applications January 1-March 1, 2026.

The Board of Directors of Ag Partners has established a scholarship program for dependent children of Ag Partners qualifying members.  Up to twenty $1,000 awards will be granted again this year.  Eligible applicants are:

• Dependents of qualifying Ag Partners members.
• Students who are high school seniors or recent high school graduates.
• Students planning to enroll for the first time in a full-time undergraduate course of study at a two or four-year college, university, or vocational-technical school. 
• A complete application is required by the deadline of March 1 (postmarked).

The scholarship program is a competitive process, and recipients are hand-picked by an independent committee. Recipients are selected based on work experience, activities, awards and honors, volunteer activities, goals and aspirations, and unusual circumstances.  An applicant appraisal by a high school counselor, advisor, instructor, or supervisor and a copy of a high school transcript is required with the application.  The selection committee is appointed by Ag Partners, however, in no instance does an officer or employee of Ag Partners play a part in selecting scholarship recipients.  All applicants agree to accept the decision of this independent committee as final. 

Arrangements will be made to notify scholarship award recipients by Ag Partners in the spring. Ag Partners will process payments on awards in early September. Awards are not renewable.

If you have a dependent child that wishes to apply for the Ag Partners Scholarship Program, the application can be accessed below. If you have trouble downloading the file, please contact Terra Wierson.
