How much are the scholarships?
Standard ACE award amounts are $4,200 for K-8 and $4,500 for high school, not to exceed the cost of the school’s tuition and fees, and are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis with priority on returning ACE students. If stacking with other scholarships, combined awards cannot exceed the cost of the student’s tuition and fees.
What schools participate?
A wide variety of private schools partner with ACE Scholarships. It is up to the families of potential scholarship recipients to select the best school for their child. To see a complete list of schools in Louisiana scroll down. Don’t see your private school choice on our list? Reach out to us to inquire about partnering with ACE.
The ACE Scholarship can follow your child.
If your child is awarded a scholarship, those funds are portable if transferred before funds are sent to the school and may be used at any ACE partner private school. So, if the private school you select ends up not being the right fit, you can transfer your child to another private school, and the scholarship goes with them.
*Elite School, over $20,000 tuition. ACE scholarships provided only for returning ACE students and siblings.
