History

Financial aid to high school seniors and college students interested in Highway Industry careers has been a priority of ASHE Sections/Regions and members for many years. Records show several of the Section annual scholarship programs began in the 1980s and there may have been others given sporadically during earlier years of ASHE.

 

NY Metro Section of ASHE is pleased to announce the continuance of its Scholarship Program for the 2017-2018 calendar year.
