About NEW Cooperative Scholarships

Applications for the 2027-2028 academic year open December 2026.

The NEW Cooperative Foundation annually provides scholarships to undergraduate students pursuing degrees in agriculture.  

The NEW Cooperative Foundation offers a minimum of ten (10) scholarships of $2,000 each awarded to undergraduates pursuing degrees in agriculture. We are also pleased to offer the Bob Wallentine Memorial Scholarship, awarding one $4,000 scholarship to a full-time student pursuing an Agricultural Business degree.

Recipients will be selected according to their outstanding leadership potential and interest in pursuing a future career in agriculture. Applicants shall be a full-time student that has been accepted into an accredited 2-year college or a 4-year university. Applicants who meet the criteria of the Wallentine Memorial Scholarship (full-time undergraduate student at a four-year university pursuing an Agricultural Business degree) will automatically be entered for BOTH NEW Cooperative scholarships. Please review the NEW Cooperative Scholarship and Wallentine Memorial Scholarship Guidelines below for details and eligibility requirements.

Our Impact

Since its founding in 1973, NEW Cooperative has remained committed to one guiding principle: doing for farmers what they cannot do themselves. This focus continues to drive long-term success for our members and the communities we serve—season after season.
