While it is still a few months away from the deadline to submit Texas FFA Scholarship Applications, it is time to start to work on them.  Should you have a senior applicant this year, there are a few things that they could start getting together in order to submit the app on time.

·          Update recordbooks… if you need last years app to start collecting information, I can get it to you…   This year’s app is supposed to go online today but it was not up awhile ago.

·         FAFSA – they do not have to wait on this years taxes to get a score…. They can use last year’s tax returns

·         Updated transcript with act /sat stickers and class rank  through fall semester

·         Award application folder – here is the link to order it.  https://shopffa.org/item/00381-0000/AWARD-APP-FOLDER/
