The ASE Education Foundation announced applications are now open for the Michael Busch Memorial Scholarships, which will provide financial assistance to students preparing for careers in the collision repair industry.
Applications are being accepted through March 31 for two $1,000 scholarships that will be awarded for the 2025-26 academic year.
The scholarships are available to high school seniors, high school graduates or individuals with a GED certificate who are enrolling or planning to enroll as full-time students in a two- or four-year college, university or an ASE-accredited post-secondary collision repair program.
Established in memory of Michael Busch, the scholarships honor the son of Jim Busch, a former collision shop owner and ASE board member from Issaquah, WA. Michael was an automotive technology student who tragically lost his battle with cancer.
Students interested in applying can submit their applications at AutomotiveScholarships.com/apply-online. Additionally, applicants who apply through this platform will have their submissions considered for all scholarships for which they qualify.
