Ladies & gentlemen, buckle up ! Start moving ! It's that time of the year! As 2014 draws to an end, many opportunities are coming your way in 2015. A great one and quite unknown to most students is the ASME Foundation Scholarship.
All ASME Student members, enrolled in Mechanical Engineering programs anywhere in the world are eligible to apply for it. The current value of this scholarship may vary from 2500-4500 US Dollars i.e. above Rs. 250,00-450,000 !
So what are you waiting for, start gathering your documents, i.e. transcripts, letters of recommendation, financial information, etc and apply anytime from early Jan till 20th March.
In 2009, I received the ASME foundation scholarship. At the time, I was the first Pakistani to have received that scholarship and I am surprised why more students have not availed this great opportunity since then. HERE's the link of the ASME foundation 2008-2009 annual report containing the names of the scholarship recipients. Your name could be in a similar report also. If you are an active ASME member with a good GPA, do apply, you can definitely get this scholarship !
