Arboriculture/Urban Forest Memorial Scholarship
In August of 2006, the Professional Arborist Association of Mississippi and the Mississippi Urban Forest Council established the Arboriculture/Urban Forest Memorial Scholarship at Mississippi State University.
The Mississippi State University Foundation uses the gift from Professional Arborist Association of Mississippi and Mississippi Urban Forest Council to establish an annual scholarship for deserving students enrolled at Mississippi State University in the College of Forest Resources. The recipient of this scholarship must be a student in the urban forestry option of the Forestry major with an interest in Arboriculture and should be in good standing with a cumulative grade point average of 3.0–3.5.
Each award will be for $1,000 per year or $500 per semester. Funds will not be given directly to the recipients; rather, the university business office will credit recipients’ tuition and fee expenses each semester.
