Applications for American Quarter Horse Foundation Scholarships are Open

For students with big goals and dreams for the future, scholarship opportunities can help make the journey possible.

Scholarship applications through the American Quarter Horse Foundation are open until January 15, 2027. Each year, more than 50 scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate purpose, leadership, and a passion for the American Quarter Horse and equine industry.

The Foundation Scholarship Program is dedicated to supporting well-rounded, driven, and deserving students who are shaping the future of the industry. Scholarships recognize students who exemplify leadership, service, and personal integrity, with an emphasis on the importance of competence, character, and commitment.

In addition to reducing the financial barriers to higher education, scholarships open doors to future career opportunities, build confidence in personal potential and lay the foundation for continued professional growth. By investing in education, AQHF helps students develop the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to achieve their career goals and make meaningful contributions to their communities and the equine industry.

Scholarship opportunities vary in award amount and eligibility requirements, and recipients are selected through a balanced review of academic achievement, financial need and their long-term commitment to the American Quarter Horse industry.

The Foundation encourages eligible students to explore the available scholarship opportunities and apply. Parents, grandparents, educators, coaches and mentors are also encouraged to share scholarship information with students who may benefit from the program.
