Area I of the United States Eventing Association is proud to announce the creation of a new scholarship program.
Area I will grant four awards of $250 each to deserving applicants to use for educational purposes such as clinics, lessons, and other learning opportunities. Two scholarships will be granted in the spring and two in the fall. One of the four awards is reserved for a professional horseman.
The application deadline for the spring award is March 15, and the deadline for the fall award is August 15.
All USEA members in good standing will be eligible to apply for and potentially receive these scholarships, although preference in the selection process is given to residents of Area I.

Area I is excited to be offering this opportunity and the scholarship committee looks forward to seeing your applications! Please direct any questions to [email protected].
