AFE accepting applications for paid internships

The American Floral Endowment (AFE) is now accepting applications for two paid floriculture/horticulture internships. The application deadline is March 1st, and students will receive a scholarship upon successful completion of their internship.

The Vic & Margaret Ball Intern Scholarship Program was made possible through a generous gift from Vic & Margaret Ball, and provides students the opportunity to gain experience at a commercial production greenhouse or nursery. The program offers internships in three, four or six-month durations and provides scholarships of up to $6,000.

In addition, faculty are reimbursed up to $1,000 in travel expenses to visit students at their internship sites!

Three videos were created to promote this program, including the student/faculty video, which shares students' valuable experiences and testimonials on how the program helped them in their careers. 

The Mosmiller Intern Scholarship Program provides students pursuing a career in retail or wholesale operations with internship experience and honors Colonel and Mrs. Walter E. Mosmiller, Jr. The program offers internships in 10-16 week durations and provides scholarships of $2,000.
