Financial Aid Types

Here at Georgia Military College, you have several options to choose from when deciding how to finance your education. Take the time to read the information on the various options below, and as always, please feel free to Email Our Financial Aid Office with any questions you may have.

Financial Aid Types

Scholarships

Any student wishing to apply for a Georgia Military College Foundation Scholarship to help finance his/her Georgia Military College education may complete and submit the scholarship application available from the Office of Advancement.

HOPE

Students who are eligible for the GTEG program may be eligible to receive additional assistance under this state scholarship program. Consult the Financial Aid Office for eligibility requirements. Beginning in 2004-2005, partial HOPE is also available to GMC students attending on a part-time basis (6 – 11 hours).

Federal Grants

Federal Pell Grant
A Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid since it is a need-based federal grant. Students may apply for the Pell Grant by completing the Application for Federal Student Aid, which is available online (www.fafsa.ed.gov), in the financial aid office, or from the distant learning center financial aid assistant. The number of course hours is a part of the formula for figuring this grant as well as the student’s total family income. Additional verification requirements may be requested by the financial aid office.

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG)
FSEOG is a need-based federal grant program designed to aid students with financial needs beyond Pell Grant stipends. Contact the Financial Aid Office for eligibility requirements and the application process.

Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership (LEAP)
LEAP is a need-based state grant program designed to provide educational assistance to residents of Georgia who demonstrate substantial financial need to attend eligible postsecondary institutions in Georgia.

Federal Work Study

FWS is a need-based federal work-study program. Students work up to 20 hours per week in on-campus jobs and are paid an hourly rate to help pay education expenses. To apply, students must complete the FAFSA and show an unmet financial need. Contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.

Loan Information

Educational loans are an investment in one’s self for the future. Did you know that a college graduate is projected to earn a minimum of a million dollars above what a person without an education will earn? Potential earnings are certainly an incentive, but even more powerful is the ability to be able to CHOOSE what career path you will utilize to earn a living for yourself. Becoming an educated person puts you in the position of making the choice.
