ACC Study Abroad Scholarships

Board of Trustees’ Study Abroad Scholarship

The Board of Trustees’ Study Abroad Scholarship awards $1,000 to be applied to the recipient’s program fee. The Board of Trustees’ Study Abroad Scholarship is reserved for current ACC students participating in an ACC faculty-led, study abroad program.

To apply for the Board of Trustees’ Study Abroad Scholarship, you first need to complete an advising session. During this session, we’ll cover program details, the application process, scholarships, and more. After you submit your application for the selected program, we will send you the scholarship application. Please ensure you complete the advising session as one of the initial steps.

Eligibility

  • You must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 at ACC.
  • You must have enrolled in and completed with a passing grade at least 3 credits in the fall semester at ACC prior to the study abroad program.
  • You must have completed and passed a minimum of 12 credits of ACC classes by the start of your study abroad program. (*Continuing Education classes, developmental classes, and transfer credits do not apply to the 12-hour minimum.)
  • Past recipients of this scholarship are not eligible to apply.

Selection

Applications will be ranked based on short answer application questions, financial need, GPA, and faculty recommendations. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Preference will be given to students participating in ACC faculty-led study abroad programs.

Rules

Recipients must register for and pass all study abroad program courses. If a student fails to complete minimum credits by the start of the program, drops/withdraws/fails one or more of the study abroad program courses, voluntarily terminates participation, does not comply with the ACC Student Code of Conduct or study abroad program rules, or is sent home during a study abroad program, the student will be billed for the entire amount of the scholarship.

Scholarship applications can be submitted until February 13, 2025
