 The ASHS Collegiate Scholars Award honors the academic achievements of undergraduates from departments of horticulture, or from departments of plant science who are majoring in horticulture. Honorees are in the top 15% of their class and must have completed 30 credits in their major at the given institution. The award is primarily based on academic standing (e.g., GPA and scholastic achievement), but other criteria such as participation in club and/or campus activities, and services to their departments are considered in the final decision. Each recipient will receive a certificate documenting the award from ASHS.
