 Feb. 23, 2022 Source: Women in Agribusiness news release Boston - Applications are now being accepted for the 2022 Women in Agribusiness (WIA) Scholarship program. The scholarships, funded by industry businesses, help defray the cost for agribusiness students to attend the annual WIA Summit, which this year will take place in Dallas, Texas, September 26-28.

Other schools represented include Oregon State University, Cornell University and University of Minnesota. Chosen applicants, who must submit a resume, headshot and statement describing their educational and career goals in detail and how attending the WIA Summit will benefit this, will receive: • Registration for the three-day Summit • Three nights shared lodging at a hotel (if needed) • Meals provided at the event • One-year WIA Membership, which provides access to conference content and member directory To apply for a scholarship, fill out this form.
