Scholarship Update March 27

ACAF • March 27, 2020

Our scholarship process is underway, with selection teams reviewing applications now and into next week. Because this committee was not able to meet in person the process will take a little longer than usual, but we anticipate notifying applicants of their status within the first 10 days of April.

Note that the May 17 scholarship event planned for scholarship recipients has been cancelled.
