Eligibility

University of Alaska Fairbanks Alaska Education Grant offers numerous awards of $4000 each. Location restrictions exist. Restricted to those with financial need.

Description

The Alaska Education Grant is state-funded, and administered by the Alaska Commission for Postsecondary Education (ACPE). Award criteria includes financial need, determined by the student's Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) as shown on their FAFSA; prior academic year award recipient; date of FAFSA filing; and enrollment level (full-time vs. half-time), as certified by the student's institution of attendance. To receive the maximum award, qualifying students must be enrolled in at least 15 credit hours for "On Time" enrollment status. Students with the highest financial need will be awarded in order of need until funds are exhausted. Applicants must be an Alaska resident for at least 365 days prior to filing the FAFSA. They must have a high school diploma or GED; be admitted into an undergraduate degree or vocational certificate program at a qualifying Alaska institution; and not have earned a prior baccalaureate degree. UAF and ACPE encourages students to apply early for award prioritization. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Financial Aid Office at the University of Alaska Fairbanks for more information.
