The California Construction Trucking Association established the California Scholastic Program in 1991 to assist qualified students in achieving their goals in the pursuit of higher education. Several scholarship awards are available each year for incoming Freshman, continuing Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors.
Winning scholars will receive the awarded amount to be deposited in their name at the Financial Aid Office of the Campus of their choice, for use when purchasing books, supplies and tuition fees.
