Scholarship Program

About the scholarships

The Chicago Railroad Mechanical Association (CRMA) is pleased to announce the availability of a minimum of two scholarships for eligible college or university students.

One scholarship is available for a dependent of a supply member and one for a dependent of a railroad member. Two scholarships may be awarded to dependents of either supply or railroad members if an approved application is not received from one of the member groups in a given year.

Please share this with others in your organization.
