Funding for APS, AEG, and the WWAMI program for the 2021-22 academic year

At this time, funding to support the Alaska Performance Scholarship (APS), Alaska Education Grant (AEG), and WWAMI is still unresolved. This funding issue will be addressed during the next Legislative Special Session slated to begin on August 2, 2021.  Although award funding is not yet finalized, ACPE is optimistic this funding issue will be resolved. Students are encouraged to submit the FAFSA (studentaid.gov) apply for scholarships, and work with campus advisors in preparation for the Fall 2021 semester. If you plan on attending one of the University of Alaska campuses, Interim President Pitney has stated the “University will honor the APS and AEG awards to new and continuing students for this fall”. ACPE will continue to provide updates as additional information becomes available. Sign-up here to directly receive notifications, or check back on our website at acpesecure.alaska.gov/Announcements to view the most recent information.

  • Best and Brightest

    "The average UAA student has over $13,000 of gross financial need. Without the Alaska Performance Scholarship and Alaska Education Grant many of our best and brightest Alaskan students would struggle to afford their degree."
