ServiceUp, an automotive technology company, is on a mission to revolutionize the auto repair industry.
Currently, the industry is seeing a decrease in available automotive technicians, leading to longer wait times and higher costs for customers to get their cars repaired. There's only about half the number of auto techs needed coming out of technical colleges and training programs every year. This is a leading problem for mechanical and auto body shop owners, especially many of the family-owned shops across the country.
The Techs of Tomorrow Automotive Scholarship is designed to support and empower students who are passionate about pursuing careers as automotive technicians. With a vision to foster the automotive industry's growth and excellence, this scholarship aims to recognize and reward five individuals with a $1,000 financial scholarship each.
High school juniors, seniors, and trade school students interested in a career in the automotive industry may apply. Automotive technicians, mechanics, and auto body technicians will have preference.
To apply, please tell us what inspired you to pursue a career in the automotive industry, and how you envision your role contributing to innovation and progress in the field?

Award checks will be sent to the financial aid office of the winner's academic institution or future academic institution in their name to be applied to their tuition, and in the name of their institution (depending on the school's requirements). If the award is for a qualified educational non-tuition expense, we will work with the winner directly to distribute the award and make sure it goes towards qualified expenses.
Before we award the scholarship, the winner will be required to confirm their academic enrollment status. Depending on the circumstances, verification of Student ID and/or their most recent transcript will be required.
