Step 1. Apply/Enroll your student in one of ACE’s partner schools in your area. To see current partner schools, learn more about ACE, and see a list of requirements, please visit here, then scroll down to select your state.
Step 2. Apply for an ACE Scholarship on FACTS. You can find the link to apply here.
Step 3. Make sure that you have submitted your application (including all the correct documents and all application questions) on FACTS by the deadline (April 15th, 2025 at 11:59 PM in the time zone in which the school you are applying to resides).
Step 4. After you submit your application, you will have to wait a few days while FACTS processes your application and documents. FACTS will reach out to you via email if additional information is needed or if your application is complete. ACE will review applications after the application window closes on April 15.
Step 5. ACE will send out award notifications to families over the summer before the school year begins. (Schools will be notified after we have finished allocating awards and finalizing them.)
If awarded, you will receive a link to accept the award and complete a survey. Complete this by the deadline.
Step 6. We will reach out to the school to confirm the awarded students’ enrollment in early September and send funds to the school directly once enrollment is confirmed. Families are responsible for working out a payment plan with the school for the remainder of the tuition that the award does not cover.
