ALABAMA (WHNT) — Alabama high school students will have the opportunity to apply to select colleges next week with no fees!
The Alabama State Department of Education (DOE) announced Tuesday that as part of the Alabama College Application Campaign (ALCAC) on February 20-24, high school seniors can apply to 63 select colleges with no fees.
This is an extension of an event the Alabama DOE held in October. During that event, over 26,000 seniors applied to colleges and universities.
“Due to the success of this campaign, colleges and universities have agreed to host another event for students. Students that did not apply to a college or university during the initial campaign are encouraged to participate in this event,” said Alabama College Application Campaign (ALCAC) Coordinator, Dr. Monica P. Mack.
Colleges from across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina and Tennessee are waiving application fees, and Alabama Community Colleges are joining in the campaign as well.
Waiver codes are needed for some colleges when applying in order to be eligible for waived fees. A full list of waiver codes students may need when applying can be found here. Select schools don’t require a waiver code for free application during this time period.
