                                                                                                The University awards scholarship based on student performance. As you establish yourself as a worthy canditate, the scholarship office determines your eligibility depending on your GPA, then awards scholarship funds on a graduated scale from quarter tuition to full tuition. We encourage you to work hard to prove yourself, and make yourself eligible for these awards.

                                                                                                We also encourage you to apply for additional scholarships that come from outside of campus from various parts of the Horticulture Industry. We will place links and information on this page to assist you in finding scholarship support. If you become aware of any additional information, please contact the department and forward it on so we can bless the lives of more students. Please feel free to email: romneyb@byui.edu
