The ACI Foundation Fellowship and Scholarship gets funding from generous ACI members and operates based on funds.
This program gives students over $200,000 every year to help them with their studies and travel to ACI Concrete Conventions.
ACI’s global network of faculty promotes these awards for the brightest students.
This fellowship remains one of the best scholarship in United States.
ACI Foundation Fellowships and Scholarships Eligibility
To be eligible to apply for the ACI fellowships and scholarship, you must meet the following requirements:
1) Applicant’s contact and educational information
2) Submit your resume in the English language in Microsoft Word (.doc or .docx) or Acrobat Adobe (.pdf) format.
3) Submit a 500-word essay sharing why you are into a lifelong career on the concrete industry. Mention any activities you have done, are doing, or plan to do that show your interest in concrete.
4) Official Transcripts
- Transcripts shall be submitted for all undergraduate and graduate programs attended.
- All transcripts must be original and official documents. Unofficial transcripts or copies of transcripts will not be accepted.
- Many institutions now provide official E-Transcripts. Please have the institution email those to [email protected]. ACI Foundation will accept this form of transcript if they come directly from your institution with an official digital signature or stamp.
- ACI Foundation will not accept E-Transcripts sent directly from an applicant’s email address. And the review and acceptance of E-Transcripts will be at the discretion of the Scholarship Coordinator.
- Transcripts must be in English or accompanied by a version translated in English.
- Courses must be described in detail. The general subject name (e.g. “mathematics”) is not sufficient; the particular subject (e.g. “differential equations,” “algebraic topology”) must be identified with their grades.
- Transcripts shall be mailed or emailed directly from the institution and must be sealed in an envelope with the institution’s stamp over the seal.
- Transcripts shall reach the Scholarship Coordinator no later than the closing date of the application. No exceptions.
- You will receive an email once your transcripts have been received by the ACI Foundation.
- Any document, including transcripts, received by ACI Foundation becomes the property of ACI Foundation and will not be returned.
5) Two Endorsements
- Endorsements must be in the English language.
- Be prepared with the names and email addresses of your endorsers.
- One endorser must be an ACI member (non-student) and the other should be an employer (if possible) or professor. Often, it is easier to locate and contact an ACI member at your school.
- The proper protocol is to contact these individuals and get their commitment to write an endorsement before submitting their names and emails on the application.
- Endorsers must not be family members of the applicant, nor students.
