Applicants must be a member of the Society and in good standing at the time of application and award. Applicants must express an interest in structural engineering. Previous recipients are eligible to apply in any succeeding competition for these awards provided the other requirements of eligibility are satisfied. Applicants must submit a minimum of two recommendation letters, one of which must be from a faculty member. Selection is based on appraisal of the applicant's essay, stated interest in structural engineering, education plans, academic performance, potential for development, demonstrated leadership qualities, and financial need.
