Automotive Scholarships and Loan Forgiveness
College is expensive. SEMA can help.
If you know someone preparing for a career in the automotive industry, we’re ready to lend a hand. And if you know someone with outstanding student loans, we can help, too. SEMA maintains a program to pay part of the college tuition costs of today’s top students or contribute toward your employees’ student loans.
The SEMA Memorial Scholarship Fund is dedicated to fostering the next generation of industry leaders and innovators. We offer scholarships to today’s brightest students at universities, colleges, and/or vocational/technical schools in the United States. Awards range from $1,000 - $2,000, with $4,000 going to the top student.
For students planning on attending Ohio Technical College (OTC), a full-tuition scholarship (valued up to $29,400) will be awarded to one student.
The SEMA Loan Forgiveness Program is dedicated to aiding recent graduates in getting off to a successful start in their automotive aftermarket career. We offer $1,000 awards toward outstanding student loans for individuals who are employed by SEMA-member companies.
