2023 applications are due March 20th, 2023. 

There are approximately 18 scholarships available.  Please note that this is the Larimer County 4-H Foundation and not the Colorado 4-H Scholarships; these are two different opportunities. The Larimer County 4-H Foundation is open to all Larimer County 4-H youth furthering their education post high school and who may attend any accredited school of choice regardless of the location.

More details and applications are available on the Larimer County 4-H Foundation website.

Colorado 4-H awards scholarships annually to outstanding youth who have actively engaged in Colorado 4-H clubs for at least three years. The scholarship process is open from November 1, 2023, through March 1, 2024. Scholarship recipients will be announced in May 2024. There are opportunities available for all kinds of students, including those attending CSU or other universities, trade schools or junior colleges, transfer students, and continuing students. We encourage our 4-H participants to apply. There is $49,500 available in funding this year!

 

For more information on the scholarship process and scholarships available, please visit the Colorado 4-H website.
