TRUMPF, Inc. has established a scholarship program to assist children of employees who plan to continue their education in college or university. Renewable scholarships are offered each year for full-time study at an accredited two-year or four-year institution of the student’s choice.

This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals.

  • High school seniors or graduates or current postsecondary undergraduates planning to enroll in full-time undergradaute study at an two- or four-year postsecondary institution for the entire upcoming academic year

Awards

If selected as a recipient, you will receive a $2,000 U.S. award. Up to five (5) awards will be granted.

Awards may be renewed for up to three additional years or until a bachelor’s degree is earned, whichever occurs first.
