Field:

Horticulture, botany, landscape architecture, environmental studies, and related fields.

Eligibility:

Citizens of the U.S. who have received a B.A. or B.S. degree recently. Preference is given to applicants under 26 years of age, due to the age limit on student travel vouchers in Great Britain. Finalists are required to attend an interview at their own expense.

Amount:

Expenses for housing, board, tuition, travel to and from Britain, and an allowance. A McLaren scholar arrives in the summer to visit sites of horticultural interest.
