New Grant Program The law also created a
new student aid grant program called the Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG).
Congress has provided funding and the grants are available for the
2007-2008 award year. First-year undergraduate students will be eligible
to receive up to $750. Second-year undergraduate students will be eligible
to receive up to $1,300. The ACG eligibility criteria are listed below:
To be eligible for an ACG each academic year, a student must:
- Be a U.S. citizen;
- Be Federal Pell Grant eligible;
- Be enrolled full-time in a degree program;
- Be enrolled in the first or second academic year of his or her
program of study at a two-year or four-year degree-granting institution;
- Have completed a rigorous secondary school program of study (after
January 1, 2006, if a first-year student, and after January 1, 2005, if
a second year student);
- If a first-year student, not have been previously enrolled in an
undergraduate program; and
- If a second-year student, have at least a cumulative 3.0 grade point
average on a 4.0 scale for the first academic year.
If you have not filed a FAFSA or Renewal FAFSA, at the time that you
complete your application, FAFSA on the Web will predetermine if you are
eligible to answer the ACG questions.
If you have submitted a paper FAFSA and have received your Student Aid
Report (SAR) indicating that you may be eligible to answer the ACG
questions, please call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at
1-800-4FED-AID.
You may also contact the financial aid office at your school for
assistance regarding ACG.
