Seventy new freshmen and transfer students planning to pursue degrees in food and agriculture have received partial scholarships for the 2021-22 academic year, thanks to a grant from USDA’s National Institute for Food and Agriculture.

The $2,000 partial scholarships come from the second installment of the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences’s share of USDA NIFA’s $19 million 1890 land-grant scholarship awards program, which started last year. The program made awards to the 19 1890 land-grant institutions, including N.C. A&T, for the purpose of providing scholarships for undergraduate students interested in food and agriculture.
