Scholarship Program

The Heart O' Texas Fair & Rodeo is excited to announce the 2021 Scholarship Application is now available.

New this year is that applications will only be accepted via email. All the new information can be found on the front page (and last page) of the application along with the deadline. The application is a fillable PDF with a page for the applicant to include their essay. Just complete the application and email it back to melinda@hotfair.com. The letters of recommendation and transcript can accompany the application or be sent separately from those who write the letters and/or counselor.

Last year, the Heart O' Texas Fair & Rodeo awarded $155,000 in scholarships to 43 Texas students in 2020 during a special Facebook Live Announcement, underwritten by Alliance Bank Central Texas. This continues the Fair & Rodeo's tradition and mission of giving back through youth scholarships.

These scholarships are part of the Heart O’ Texas Fair & Rodeo’s annual commitment of providing scholarships to Central Texas students which is made possible thanks to our sponsors and volunteers. Each year, our volunteers spend countless hours raising money through various fundraisers to contribute to this fund. Since its beginning, the Heart O’ Texas Fair & Rodeo has committed more than $3.25 million to the youth of Texas.
