Scholarships and Financial Support

Thanks to the generosity of Horticulture alumni, industry partners, organizations, and friends of the department, scholarship funds have been established specifically to support Horticulture students.

CAES awards scholarships to students enrolled in its majors. Current students and prospective first-year/transfer students should use the appropriate CAES scholarship process and review the current CAES website for application dates, requirements, and instructions.

CAES and UGA may offer scholarships or other funding opportunities for eligible students participating in study abroad, study away, international internships, and other global experiences. Students should begin looking for funding early and use the current CAES/UGA funding pages for deadlines and eligibility.

Professional associations, foundations, businesses, garden organizations, and other groups may offer awards related to greenhouse and nursery production, floriculture, food crops, landscape horticulture, arboriculture, public horticulture, plant science, business, internships, and other areas. External scholarship information changes frequently, so students should confirm requirements and deadlines directly with the awarding organization.

Explore Internships

Students may also find paid research, farm, greenhouse, nursery, garden center, internship, and other horticultural work while completing their degree. These opportunities can provide income while building relevant professional experience.
