Scholarships
Scholarships are a type of financial aid that can help you pay for college. Scholarships don’t have to be paid back.
Thanks to the ACC Foundation, generous donors, and ACC itself, we have many scholarships available. Learn about ACC scholarships and find outside scholarship options as well.
