The student receiving the highest All-USA Academic Team application score in each state will be named a New Century Scholar and will represent their state in the opening ceremonies at the AACC Convention. Each New Century Scholar will receive a $2,000 scholarship and each institution will receive special recognition at the AACC Convention. The New Century Scholars program is sponsored annually by the American Association of Community Colleges, The Coca-Cola Foundation, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, and Phi Theta Kappa.
