INTRODUCTION
The Express Ranches Progressive JunÅ r Scholarship Program is designed to help
America’s youth to continue their educatŠn by enrolling in undergraduate courses
of studies at an accredited two or four year college, university or vocatÅ nal
technical school. It is designed for junÅ rs who want to accumulate scholarships
year after year.
ELIGIBILITY
1. The animals must be purchased from Express Ranches at public auctÅ n or by
private treaty.
2. The animals must be bought and registered by a junÅ r and be in his/her name.
3. The year of purchase and receipt of payment determines which year you wÕl
qualify under the graduated program: If you purchased and paid for an animal
in calendar year 1995, that is year one. Animals purchased and paid for in
subsequent calendar years qualify you for additÅ nal years. If any year is missed,
the future purchase wÕl be credited to the next year of purchases. (i.e. If you
purchased in 2000 and 2002, the 2002 would be the second year of purchases.)
