American Council of the Blind Scholarship Program

American Council of the Blind (ACB)

The American Council of the Blind’s (ACB) Scholarship Program was established in 1982. The Scholarship program awards students with scholarships which will help with post-secondary education financial needs such as tuition, fees, room and board and other additional costs associated with adaptive technology. The American Council of the Blind has a great opportunity for students who are legally blind to earn a scholarship, whether they are going to a technical college, an entering freshman, undergraduate or a graduate student. To be eligible for a scholarship, you need to be legally blind, maintain a 3.3 GPA, be a full-time student (as well as students who work 32 or more hours per week and attend college part time), and are involved in your school/local community.
