The AEF maintains this scholarship and financial aid website for the benefit of Big Country area students. This website can also be accessed by link from the AISD homepage. The scholarship page is designed to provide students with easy access to information on a large number of Abilene area scholarships, Community Foundation of Abilene scholarships, and those of a wide variety of service and business organizations. Additionally, the website provides links to all local and most state universities, colleges, community colleges and federal financial aid resources. A timeline and high school curriculum guidance have also been provided with the valuable assistance of AISD school counselors.

Perhaps the greatest challenge for students, given that there are so many avenues available for funding a college education, is organization and centralization of information. The AEF scholarship website seeks to assist in this process by leading parents and students to appropriate contacts and sources. We hope that students will refer to our scholarship website to find previously unknown or underutilized resources. The AEF looks forward to growing and expanding this project in the coming years with the desire that each child in the Big Country will be able to pursue a higher education.
