3 scholarships engineering students should apply for

Many students working toward a degree in engineering could use a bit of financial assistance due to the time and energy it takes to complete the degree. Many engineering students also complete internships and help with volunteer projects to better set them up with a job once they graduate.

If you’re currently an engineering student looking for financial assistance, don’t hesitate to apply for these scholarships.

1. John and Marcia Price College of Engineering Scholarships

If you’re currently an engineering student at the University of Utah, you may be eligible to apply for the John and Marcia Price College of Engineering Scholarships.

There are two types of scholarships in this college including auto-match scholarships and apply-to scholarships. To receive an auto-match scholarship, you must complete the general and college of engineering applications. The system will automatically match you to the scholarships you qualify for. Apply-to scholarships require additional information like essays and prompt assignments but significantly increase your chance of receiving a scholarship.

2. ACEC Utah UVU Scholarship

We’re proud to give two $1,000 scholarships to engineering students at Utah Valley University every year. We believe in building up students in our local community and encouraging new Utah engineering projects.

To qualify for this scholarship, you must be a junior and enrolled in at least part-time classes. If selected for the scholarship, your award will be presented at an ACEC monthly luncheon.
