At A+FCU, we have a long history of helping current and college-bound students thrive in their education by awarding annual scholarships. We’re once again proud to announce the availability of our annual scholarship program for the 2025-2026 school year.
This year, the scholarship program will provide 60 current or college-bound students each with a $2,000 scholarship. The applications opened on November 1, 2024 and are accessible until February 7, 2025 on our A+FCU scholarship webpage.
We offer this scholarship to graduating high school seniors, current college students pursuing an education degree with a minimum of 60 collegiate credit hours, and teachers pursuing graduate degrees.
“Our credit union was founded by educators, so uplifting students and teachers is a priority and means a great deal to us," shared Eric R. Kase, President/CEO of A+FCU. “Through our scholarship program, we’ve impacted hundreds of students over the years, allowing them to focus on their studies and be successful. This year, we are proud to support 60 additional students in achieving their educational goals."
Students can apply for the scholarship if they or their parents are an A+FCU member as of the application deadline. This allows those interested in applying to become new A+FCU members before the deadline.
The annual scholarships serve as an aid to parents or guardians and students in all financial situations. The scholarship program considers both financial need and merit, giving those whose income exceeds traditional financial aid an opportunity to save on college tuition.
“I can’t say enough about the impact this A+FCU scholarship has had on my ability to achieve my graduate degree. I am so very grateful,” Michelle LeBlanc, Texas State University student studying for her M.Ed. Specializing in Reading, said. “A+FCU has always been amazing to work with. For them to support me achieving my dreams in this way says so much about their commitment to the community!”
