Over $15,000 in scholarships are available through the Illinois Pork Producers Association (IPPA) this year.
Each year, IPPA offers scholarships to students pursuing a higher education degree (at a two or four-year institution) who have a background in the pork industry. Recipients are selected based on activity involvement, GPA, and an essay detailing how the
student plans to contribute to the pork industry in the future.
Also available is the Ryan & Friends Scholarship sponsored by the Illinois Purebred Swine Council. This scholarship will award a total of four - $1,000 scholarships. Applicants must be attending a university, college, or community college for the 2016 Fall
semester. Applicants must also have been a 4-H or FFA member.
In addition, students can apply for the Ryan Fesser Scholarship sponsored by the Mid-Illinois Pork Producers Association. This scholarship will be for $1,000. Applicants must be attending a university, college, or community college for the 2016 Fall semester.
