The University of the Aftermarket Foundation (UAF) is offering more than $800,000 in scholarships for students enrolling in four- and two-year colleges, as well as ASE/NATEF-certified post-secondary programs in automotive, collision and heavy-duty/diesel fields -- a significant increase from the 327 scholarships totaling $721,000 awarded in 2024.
Students interested in service and repair, engineering, supply chain, finance and IT/cybersecurity can apply through the foundation’s mobile-friendly scholarship portals, AutomotiveScholarships.com and HeavyDutyScholarships.com. A single online application allows candidates to be considered for multiple scholarships, with the option to update their submissions until the March 31 deadline.
“The UAF scholarship program will have a record year in 2025, awarding more scholarship funds than ever so the recipients can get the education and training they need to begin a successful automotive or heavy-duty career,” said Roger McCollum, MAAP, chairman of the University of the Aftermarket Foundation.
A complete list of available scholarships, eligibility requirements and application details is available on the UAF scholarship websites. The foundation urges applicants to review individual scholarship criteria carefully to ensure they submit the required materials.
