ACEF SCHOLARSHIP FUND
The ACEF Scholarship Fund Program provides scholarships to graduating high school seniors from Anniston, Oxford, Saks, and Wellborn who will pursue a course of study at either a two-year or four-year educational institution.  Need and participation in ACEF's Youth Coalition will also be considered.

For 2017, the ACEF Scholarship Fund’s award ceiling was $25,000 and the individual maximum award was $1,750. ACEF awards scholarships, ranging in amounts from $5,000 - $2,000 per award, based on strength of application and college/university choice. This award is renewable for four years of college, but must be reapplied for each time, and the funds are not guaranteed.
