Roofing Alliance is accepting scholarship applications

The Roofing Alliance is accepting applications for its Melvin Kruger Scholarship Program 2026-27 academic scholarships. There are two scholarship opportunities available.

The Accredited University Scholarship is for Roofing Alliance and NRCA member employees, their spouses and their dependent children who are pursuing postsecondary education. Construction management students enrolled at the undergraduate level, regardless of industry affiliation, in a program leading to a bachelor of science degree in construction management also are eligible. Scholarship recipients are awarded $5,000 per year for up to four years of undergraduate study.

The Accredited CTE Scholarship is for Roofing Alliance and NRCA member employees, their spouses and their dependent children who are pursuing an education at a vocational or technical trade school; the scholarship is not designed for careers that require a four-year degree. CTE and vocational students enrolled in CTE programs or vocational schools, regardless of industry affiliation, also are eligible. Scholarship recipients are awarded $2,000 per year; awards are not renewable, but students may reapply each year provided they meet the requirements.

The application deadline is 3 p.m. CST on Jan. 30, 2026. The online application is available
