The Andrew Ryback Photography and The Plaid Horse Higher Learning Scholarship has awarded over $10,000 to equestrians pursuing higher education. Given the success of this scholarship, MaeHunt Farm and trainer Katie Jones have stepped up and generously donated a second $2,500 scholarship for 2022. 

The scholarship is open to high school seniors graduating in 2022 and all current college and trade school students. Applicants are asked to submit a three-part essay and provide two letters of recommendation, transcript(s), a letter of acceptance to a college or university, and a photograph. Students awarded the scholarship are strong academic candidates with a clear commitment to the equestrian industry.
