If you or your child has graduated from high school and signed up for our Acorn Fund program, you can request funds to pay for the 2024 semesters beginning January 2024.

Eligible account holders must complete an online Acorn Fund Distribution Request application to request a withdrawal of funds for use at a qualified higher education institution. The application link and instructions are below. You can determine if your institution is "qualified," HERE.

Acorn Fund Distribution Request Application Instructions

You will need to have this information handy:

• Student's social security number.

• College office where you send your tuition payments. (ex. Bursar’s Office, Office of Student Accounts, etc.)

• College office street address.

• Student college account or student identification number.

Here is the link to the 2024 Semester Distribution Request.

Once you complete the request, we’ll take care of the rest! The money will go directly to your college, and you’ll know it’s received when you see a credit in your account.

One last thing: withdrawing the money may reduce any financial aid you receive from other sources, so it may be in your best interest to actually wait until after freshman or sophomore years to request your funds. That’s totally up to you, but if you do receive other forms of financial aid that are tied to your family’s income, we’d recommend doing some research into how that aid could be affected.

If you have any questions, please call Jasmin McMillon at 844-4FORMAN (436-7626) or 856-839-6736.
