The Tennessee Home Builders Foundation puts up at least $500 toward a construction-related degree or certificate, and the local Home Builders Association chapter that sponsors your application can add matching funds on top. Graduating seniors can apply with proof they've been accepted to a college, university, or technical program, and current college or vocational students can apply too. You'll need a 2.5 GPA, Tennessee residency, and a short essay (one-half to one page) on your construction career goals; you're responsible for contacting a local HBA affiliate for sponsorship and matching-fund details.
