Westchester Ag Scholarship applications due April 30College students as well as high school seniors looking for help in funding college expenses need to complete an application for the Westchester Foundation scholarship by April 30. Scholarships are awarded to high school seniors accepted for enrollment or students already enrolled at an accredited college, university or community college in a course of study related to agriculture or agribusiness. The Westchester Foundation was established by Murray Wise, founder and CEO of the Westchester Group Inc., with a mission to enhance the future of American agriculture by helping to ensure a steady supply of bright, dedicated, well-educated leaders. Students are selected by the Foundation's Board of Directors based on academic qualifications, community and school involvement, leadership potential and financial need. Provided the students maintain acceptable grade point averages, the scholarship can be renewed annually for up to four years. While the amount awarded for each scholarship varies by individual and economic need, successful applicants may anticipate a minimum of $1,000 per year to fund any expenses related to attendance at the college of their choice. Applications can be downloaded at www.westchester-group.com and must be completed and submitted no later than April 30, in order to be considered for scholarship funds for the fall semester of the 2008-2009 school year. 4/14/08 Date: 4/8/08
