National FFA Scholarships Open for 2025-26 Applicants

The National FFA Organization has officially opened applications for its 2025-26 scholarship program, offering nearly $2.5 million in financial assistance to FFA members pursuing their next steps in education.

Whether students are headed to a trade school, vocational program, or a two- or four-year college, the online application gives them access to a wide range of scholarship opportunities funded by FFA’s generous corporate partners and supporters.

The application period runs now through January 15, 2026, and all high school seniors and FFA alumni currently enrolled in college are eligible to apply. Notifications for both winners and non-winners will be sent on April 23, 2026, with an acceptance deadline of May 29, 2026, and funds distributed beginning July 16, 2026.

The scholarship program, managed in partnership with Kaleidoscope, connects applicants with numerous opportunities through a single streamlined process. If students experience technical issues while applying, Kaleidoscope’s Help Chat and email support ([email protected]) are available to ensure applications are completed successfully.

FFA scholarships are made possible by the organization’s network of corporate sponsors, including Darling Ingredients, Domino’s, Ford, Tractor Supply Company, Farm Credit, BNSF, AGCO, CNH Parts & Service, Dairy Farmers of America, and the National FFA Alumni and Supporters, among others.

Each year, these scholarships help students pursue studies in agriculture, science, technology, business, and skilled trades — continuing FFA’s mission to develop the next generation of leaders who will change the world.
