Scholarships
There are several scholarships specifically for our forestry majors. Our forestry alumni, forest industries, and woodland owners are just some of the generous supporters of our forestry scholarships. There are also scholarships through the University of Kentucky and the UK College of Agriculture, Food and Environment.
