The Chobani Scholars Program is committed to supporting students pursuing a wide range of agricultural interests, including food and animal science. Since its inception in 2019, the program has selected four College of Agriculture and Life Sciences undergraduate students from New York as Chobani scholars, each receiving a $20,000 scholarship ($5,000 per year).

We invited the Chobani scholars from the class of 2028 to share how the program is helping them reach their goals and to reflect on their first year at CALS. Click on their profiles below to read their responses.
