ACHLA Designs—a supplier of home and garden accents—has established a scholarship fund for individuals pursuing careers in horticulture, nursery management and landscape services. Two scholarships will be awarded for 2013.
The ACHLA Designs Scholarship is for high school seniors or high school graduates interested in pursuing a college education in landscape design or horticulture-related professions at any accredited two- or four-year college (excluding for-profit colleges).
Awards will be $2,500 per year for up to four years. Recipients are required to submit proof of enrollment in a post-secondary education program and maintain a 3.0 GPA or higher throughout the academic year in order for annual scholarship funds to be released. The scholarship is open to anyone living in and planning to study in the United States.
