2025 SCAC Scholarships

The application deadline has passed. Applications are under review, and scholarship recipients will be contacted by early April. 

Presidential Scholarship

Each year, SCAC's Presidential Scholarship Program awards one $5,000 scholarship to a graduating high school senior who is a resident of the same county as our SCAC President. Since Allendale County Council Vice Chairman William E. Robinson is the current SCAC President, our 2025 Presidential Scholarship will be awarded to an Allendale County resident.  

Board of Directors Scholarships

Over the course of four years, on a rotating basis, the Board of Directors Scholarship program will award a $5,000 scholarship to one graduating high school senior from each of South Carolina's 46 counties. For 2025, 12 Board of Directors Scholarships will be awarded. A resident from each of the following counties will be selected to receive a $5,000 Board of Director's scholarship: Aiken, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, Charleston, Chester, Edgefield, Hampton, Lee, Sumter, Union, York.
