Foundation Scholarships
The purpose of the IPPS Eastern Region (IPPS-ER) Foundation Scholarship Program is to support horticulture students in their studies. The Scholarship Committee announces, accepts and reviews scholarship applications from students enrolled in 2-year, 4-year undergraduate and graduate programs. Worthy applicants are recommended to the IPPS-ER Foundation Board for funding. Five scholarships of up to $2,000 are awarded annually. Click here to see a video of a past recipient.
