There are multiple reasons why a student may not have been awarded. In order to be awarded an ACE Scholarship, families must meet the qualifications and complete their application on FACTS by the application deadline, including all required documentation.
Some years we have more applicants than funds available, meaning not all qualified applicants will receive an award. We award as many students as we are able given the funding available. When awarding, ACE first prioritizes returning scholars then by greatest need among all qualified applicants within the state.
Applicants who are not awarded are encouraged to apply again in the following year.
