The Arizona Cattle Industry Research and Education Foundation, the scholarship arm of the Arizona Cattle Growers' Association, funds Arizona residents who are high school seniors or college undergraduates pursuing courses and careers directly or indirectly tied to the cattle industry. Applicants need at least a 2.5 GPA and, once enrolled, 12 credit hours a semester. The selection committee weighs academic achievement, financial need, and any ranching or farming background, and asks for a letter of intent, transcripts, and three references.
