ACE Inspiring Excellence Scholarships Program
for High School Graduates
Supported by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport and IDP Education

Through the ACE Part-Time Scholarship initiative, 100 full scholarships for one year of study at ACE are provided to high-performing Cambodian high school graduates by equipping them with better English language proficiency to enable them to continue excelling in their studies at tertiary level in Cambodia.

- Each scholarship will be for one year of part-time study which consists of four ACE academic terms (January to December 2018). The value of each scholarship is up to USD1, 000 (one thousand US dollars) to be supported by IDP Education.
Selection:
The Selection Committee will assess and make selection based on a number of criteria in addition to applicants’ English language level. The Selection Committee reserves the right to exercise its discretion on priorities such as gender equity, those coming from provincial areas or disadvantaged backgrounds as well as the availability of classes at applicable levels at ACE.
