Romeo E. Short Foundation Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Arkansas Farm Bureau
Here’s a clearer, teacher‑friendly version you can use:
Overview
- The Romeo E. Short Scholarship Foundation, established in 1955, supports agricultural scholarships at the Dale Bumpers College of Agriculture, Food and Life Sciences (University of Arkansas).
- Bumpers College awards more than $1 million in scholarships each year, funded by generous gifts from businesses and individuals who want to support students pursuing careers in food and agriculture systems, sustainable environments, healthy families, and vibrant communities.
Who should apply
- Current and prospective Bumpers College undergraduates who are planning careers in agriculture, food systems, natural resources, family and consumer sciences, or related fields.
- Scholarships consider multiple factors: academic performance, financial need, interests, and involvement in organizations and activities.
Important deadlines and steps
- To be considered for Bumpers College scholarships (including awards supported by the Romeo E. Short Foundation), complete the online Bumpers College Scholarship application by February 15 each academic year.
- The application is available annually from January 1 through February 15 for current students.
- Note: The 2024–2025 Bumpers College Scholarship Application is now CLOSED. Plan to apply during the Jan. 1–Feb. 15 window next year.
FAFSA
- All applicants who are U.S. citizens are asked to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as early as possible each year — many scholarships take demonstrated financial need into account.

Quick tip from a teacher: treat this like a class assignment—mark the deadlines, gather your academic and activity information early, and complete the FAFSA well ahead of the scholarship deadline.
