The Kent County Agricultural Society organises the annual Kent County Show and supports a range of education initiatives used to promote the land based sector. As part of our wider charitable objectives, we have introduced a scholarship scheme for Kent based students studying for a degree in the UK. We will be offering a scholarship to students who are planning to study a degree based course in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, equine, veterinary and animal management and any other related subject.
We are offering three students, £1000 per year for each year of their study. We hope that this will make a huge difference to the students we support.
To be eligible to apply, students need to be:
- A resident of Kent at the time they apply for the scholarship. Any applications made by students who are already studying outside of the county will not be considered.
- Aged 18 to 25 when they commence study on the course.
- Starting a full-time college or university degree based course in September.
- Courses must be studied in the UK. Applications for internationa
l colleges/universities will not be considered.
The deadline for student applications is Friday 5th May 2017.
Further information on the scholarship scheme and the Society in general can be found on our website www.kentshowground.co.uk/our-charitable-objectives/.
