Alaska Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG)
An Academic Competitiveness Grant will provide up to $750 for the first year of undergraduate study and up to $1,300 for the second year of undergraduate study to full-time students who are eligible for a Federal Pell Grant and who had successfully completed a rigorous high school program, as determined by the state or local education agency and recognized by the Secretary of Education. Second year students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0.
You must complete the FAFSA to determine if you are eligible for the ACG grant, which is in addition to any Pell Grant award. Students who graduated from an Alaska high school may qualify if their high school curriculum included four years of English, three years of Math, three years of science, three years of social studies, and one year of a foreign language.
