Every spring, the New Braunfels Area Car Club awards scholarships to deserving high school senior students who intend to pursue a career in the automotive industry. These scholarships are for $2000, and are awarded to students who plan to attend either a technical school or a four year college. The scholarships are awarded through the New Braunfels Community Foundation.

New Braunfels Area Car Club Scholarship
The application process will require a transcript, your GPA and class rank, all based on 7 semesters of high school, so it must be completed in January, but you can begin the application process early and save your progress until your 7th semester information is available. The application window is very short, ending in early March, so it's best to start early!
