It's a reference to the federally funded ACG (academic competitiveness grant) (link)

BYU didn't get rid of it, the government stopped funding it.

So, are there still the normal departmental scholarships that you get based on your GPA?

My department still has them, so I'm assuming that everyone else does too...

Yeah, BYU didn't change anything. There are still academic scholarships and everything.
