Grants

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG)

Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants are available to students with exceptional financial need.  Eligible students who are currently enrolled in good standing may receive Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants.  The amount of financial assistance a student may receive depends upon their needs, taking into account their financial resources, those of the parents, and the cost of attending the college.

Federal Pell Grants

The Federal Pell Grant Program is a federal aid program designed to provide financial assistance to those who need it to attend college.  The amount of each grant is based on the cost of attending college, the amount of funds available, and the amount of family contributions toward the cost of attending school.

HOPE Scholarship

Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally is funded by the Georgia Lottery for Education and is available to eligible Georgia 1993 or later high school graduates.  Others are eligible to receive the HOPE Scholarship as a renewal of their HOPE award, or by having a 3.0 cumulative GPA at the 30th, 60th, or 90th attempted hour benchmark.  Full time enrollment is not a requirement.  The HOPE Scholarship will cover tuition and required fees and provide a $150 book allowance each semester for those working on a first undergraduate degree.  Grade point eligibility for entering freshmen is based on final high school curriculum GPA or 3.0 or better as determined by the high school and reported to the Georgia Student Finance Commission (GSFC).  Students seeking an Associate in Applied Science degree should contact the Office of Financial Aid for further information concerning HOPE eligibility.  Specific questions about HOPE should be directed to the Office of Financial Aid at East Georgia College.
