Is there still time to submit my FAFSA to get financial aid?

After applying to ACC, your first step to financial aid includes completing your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to apply for financial grants, loans, and work study employment. Applying early helps ensure the best financial aid options, but FAFSA processes applications year round, meaning it is never too late to complete your FAFSA!

Priority applications for ACC’s fall scholarships end May 1, 2025. However, you can still submit your scholarship application as an enrolled student to be eligible for hundreds of ACC scholarships for upcoming semesters.

I applied last year but didn’t take classes. Do I have to start over with the application?

If you have received an ACCeID and set up your account, you can skip the admissions and applications steps and start registering for classes!

I’ve heard about ACC’s Free Tuition Pilot Program. Do I qualify for the program?

ACC Free Tuition benefits begin the first fall semester after you graduate high school or complete your TX GED. To qualify, you must be a Texas resident who lives in the ACC service area and meets one of three requirements.

  1. High School Graduate: Graduated from a high school in the ACC service area (public or private) between spring 2024 and August 2028. View high schools in the ACC service area.
  2. Homeschool Graduate: Successfully completed a homeschool program between spring 2024 and August 2028.
  3. GED® Graduate: Earned a Texas GED® between July 1, 2023 and August 31, 2028.

A student who meets one of the above requirements  is likely eligible for the ACC Free Tuition pilot program. Students who live out-of-district will still be responsible for the out-of-district fee for each course ($201 per credit hour).

Here’s some information to help you understand what it means to be in the service area and in the district.

Service Area – The ACC service area covers all or portions of six Central Texas counties: Bastrop, Blanco, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson. You can view the service area map at austincc.edu/servicearea 

In-District – If you live within the service area and pay ACC taxes, you’re considered in-district. These areas include the City of Austin, Austin ISD, Del Valle ISD, Elgin ISD, Hays CISD, Leander ISD, Manor ISD, and Round Rock ISD.

Out-of-District – If you live within the service area but you do not pay ACC taxes or live in any of the taxing regions listed above, you’re considered out-of-district. You will still get free tuition and general fees, but will be responsible for the out-of-district fee ($201 per credit hour).

In-District Definition – If you live within the service area and pay ACC taxes, you’re considered in-district. These areas include the City of Austin, Austin ISD, Del Valle ISD, Elgin ISD, Hays CISD, Leander ISD, Manor ISD, and Round Rock ISD.

Out-of-District Definition – If you live within the service area but you do not pay ACC taxes or live in any of the taxing regions listed above, you’re considered out-of-district. You will still get free tuition and general fees, but will be responsible for the out-of-district fee ($201 per credit hour).
