Automotive Parts Associates Creates Scholarship Program

In conjunction with the University of the Aftermarket Foundation (UAF), Automotive Parts Associates (APA) has created scholarships for the children of APA shareholders and their employees.

“On behalf of the board of directors of APA, I am pleased that APA can be involved in the educational pursuits of its shareholders and their employees. Partnering with the University of the Aftermarket Foundation is an excellent way to achieve this endeavor and we look forward to being involved with the continued success of this program,” said Gary Martin, president and CEO of Automotive Parts Associates.

Five $1,000 scholarships will be awarded every year to children of APA shareholders and their employees who are attending or will attend a two or four-year accredited college; an ASE/NATEF certified post-secondary automotive, heavy duty or collision technician training program; or any licensed and accredited vocational school.

Applications for 2017 APA scholarships for 2017 will be accepted mid-September through March 31, 2017.

Students who are eligible for the scholarship can apply online, where they can complete the scholarship application form and submit the accompanying APA form to APA headquarters. Students who apply for an APA scholarship will also be considered for UAF and other scholarships through automotivescholarships.com.
