Award Specifics

Each award is a one-time, non-renewable award that is paid directly to the institution and is to be used exclusively to offset costs and fees related directly to the student’s first year of higher post-secondary education at an accredited institution of the student’s choosing within the United States.

In the event an underclassman is an award recipient, the monies will be held by the American College Foundation until the student completes high school and begins their higher education.  The American College Foundation does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, national origin, or disability.
