Oscar G. Anderson Memorial Fund

The Oscar G. Anderson Memorial Fund provides support to a worthy student of good character and in need of assistance for the purchase of textbooks necessary for courses in pomology, or the science and practice of growing fruit. This scholarship is open to students enrolled in both two-year and four-year degree programs at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Recipients are encouraged to repay the award when possible to help sustain the fund for future students, though repayment is not a required condition of receiving the award. The fund specifically targets students studying pomology and related agricultural sciences who demonstrate financial need and good character.
