What the ASHRAE Scholarship Meant to Me

Past scholarship recipients express their gratitude and share how their ASHRAE scholarship helped them achieve their educational goals.

"Thank you so much for selecting me for the ASHRAE Society’s Undergraduate Willis H. Carrier Scholarship. Receiving this award has made the dream of obtaining a master's degree into a reality. I am deeply touched by the generosity, comradery, and altruism exhibited within the ASHRAE organization. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the generous donors who made this scholarship possible."

"Thank you to ASHRAE and Southland Industries for awarding me this scholarship. As an out-of-state student, this support significantly reduces my financial burden, allowing me to keep my cost of living down and focus on other important aspects of my academic and professional development. This scholarship enables me to dedicate more time and energy to my leadership role as the president of the University of Nebraska at Omaha ASHRAE Student Chapter, where I work to inspire and support fellow students in the field. I am deeply grateful for this opportunity and for your belief in my potential."

“Thank you ASHRAE for your generous support in my education. This award will greatly help me as I continue my studies.”

"It is a huge honor to receive the ASHRAE Presidents Scholarship. This scholarship will help me tremendously for the last two years I have to earn my bachelor's degree. I will be able to worry less about college debt and focus more about learning about the HVAC+R industry. Thank you!"

“The ASHRAE Society Scholarship has not only made my college education possible, but it has also allowed me to become involved in the world around me. Without the scholarship, I would have needed to work 20+ hours a week to support my education expenses. Instead, I spend that time in clubs, student leadership, and personal electronics projects. These experiences have allowed me to grow my passion for electricity and physics and their application in the HVAC&R industry. I cannot thank ASHRAE enough for supporting me throughout this journey, and I am honored to call myself a member!”

“Receiving the ASHRAE Reuben Trane Scholarship is a source of joy for me because it is a great financial aid for me to complete my degree in Mechanical Engineering and it is a honor to receive a scholarship from a well-known and active engineering organization while being an engineering student. This scholarship will certainly be one of the highest points of my academic and professional profile and represents the trust and support that ASHRAE has in my studies, as well as in the studies of other scholarship holders.”

“Thank you for choosing me to be a recipient of one of your scholarships. It means the world to me to be recognized by a community I will be joining upon my graduation in December. I have not been the recipient of many scholarships before, especially one worth this much, so to be chosen is a true honor. I imagine it was not an easy decision to pick a single recipient, so thank you for believing I was deserving of this.”

“I cannot thank ASHRAE enough for the opportunities it has allowed me to pursue. By lifting the financial burden of my education, I am able to fully dive into my degree and explore the untapped potential in the industry. A huge thank you to ASHRAE and all the generous donors for supporting the next generation of professionals.”

"I am truly honored and grateful to have been selected as a recipient of the ASHRAE Society Scholarship. This scholarship will greatly support my academic journey, allowing me to focus on my studies and pursue my goals with greater confidence. It is encouraging to know that organizations like ASHRAE are invested in the future of students like myself."

“I am truly thankful to be chosen for the ASHRAE's Undergraduate Willis H. Carrier scholarship. This generous support has helped me financially, allowing me to focus more on my studies. Receiving this scholarship motivates me to continue striving toward my academic and career goals in the HVAC&R industry. It brings me closer to making a meaningful impact in this field. Thank you again for your confidence in my potential.”

"As a woman in ASHRAE, I feel empowered to make a meaningful impact in the HVAC field and to inspire future generations of young engineers. The Lynn G. Bellenger scholarship means so much to me and has inspired me to start our first ASHRAE student branch at my university to encourage other students to join ASHRAE. I am passionate about contributing to the sustainability and decarbonization efforts in our industry, and this scholarship will enable me to pursue my goals in engineering and actively contribute to this field."

“I am very honored to receive this scholarship. I plan on using this generous scholarship to help pay for my tuition for a degree in mechanical engineering. It will allow me to focus on my degree and learn as many skills as on an engineering team. This scholarship is a huge blessing to my college endeavors.”
