2026 Annual Conference

November 8-11, 2026

Marriott Resort Myrtle Beach Grand Dunes

Myrtle Beach, SC

Saddle up for the SCASFAA Annual Conference, where Dr. Sam Hicks’ theme “Forging the Frontier” calls on financial aid trailblazers to ride into new territory with grit, innovation, and a student-first spirit. Together, we’ll wrangle emerging challenges, swap strategies around the campfire, and blaze new trails that expand access and success across South Carolina. So dust off your boots and get ready—because the future of financial aid isn’t waiting, and this posse is leading the way forward.
