Scholarship Renewed - 2013

Please update your scholarship data base.

The consulting firm of AES Engineers is committed to continuing its support of higher

education by providing scholarships to deserving students.

To be eligible the student needs to answer one of the essay questions that they will find

on our site athttp://www.aesengineers.com/scholarships.htm

Our belief is that achieving a high grade point average should not be the only criteria for

determining who deserves to be helped. For that reason we are offering a scholarship that

will be awarded on the basis of character, as determined by evaluating the essays that are

submitted.

Amount of award: $500.00

Deadline for entry: October 4, 2013

Further information, including previous winners, is available on our web site
