4-H Scholarship Application Process and Forms

4-H Scholarship Applications are designed to help senior 4-H members (ages 14-18) identify and document skills and achievements they have gained over the course of their 4-H career. Youth will learn how to prioritize and summarize their accomplishments while creating professional documents.

Each year 4-H seniors are encouraged to complete and submit a scholarship application to the Florida 4-H State Office. Many awards, educational trips and college scholarships are given to 4-H members on the basis of their skills and achievements. 

The application process is open April 1 through June 1.

Important Dates: 

April 1 at 9am – Scholarship application and references open online

June 1 at 4pm – Scholarship application and references close online (nothing is accepted after this date and time)

Links to Submit Scholarship Applications and References
