Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG)
The Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG) is available to students who have successfully completed a rigorous High School program (as defined by the Secretary of Education). The ACG provides funding for the first and second academic year of undergraduate study. Students must be enrolled at least half time, be U.S citizens (or eligible non-citizens) and receiving a Federal Pell Grant during the award year. Second year students must also have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale.
