The Nevada Cattlemen's Association awards one scholarship each year to a graduating senior from a Nevada high school who plans to major in an agriculture-related field at a trade school, junior college, or four-year university. Applicants need at least a 2.5 GPA, an official transcript, three letters of reference, and a 1,000-1,500 word essay on a current beef-industry issue. The Association does not publish a fixed award amount or exact deadline on its website from year to year — check nevadacattlemen.org each spring or contact the Association directly for current details. The 2026 recipient (Allie Fait of Fallon, NV) confirms the program is actively running this cycle.
