In addition, scholarship applications for the 2027-2028 academic year are now open to qualified students seeking to further their undergraduate education at an accredited four-year college or university. The scholarships are open to full-time students entering their first year and current full-time undergraduate students. Any course of study may be pursued; however, applicants are encouraged to pursue a career in a field related to the sheet metal industry. The SMACNA website provides the scholarship application and eligibility requirements. Applicants must be part of SMACNA’s extended family, which includes SMACNA contractors, employees of SMACNA contractors, SMACNA Fellows, employees of local SMACNA chapters, employees of National SMACNA, SMACNA National Associate Members, and members of the families of any of these groups.

Scholarship applications must be postmarked or with email transmission date by February 28, 2027. Applications are evaluated and candidates selected by a Scholarship Committee appointed by the College of Fellows. Selection is based on applicants' stated educational goals, academic achievement, and involvement in school-related extracurricular and community activities. Applicants must demonstrate leadership potential and good character. Financial need is not a prerequisite. Award notifications are made by July 1.
