As graduation is fast approaching, here are a few things to help your seniors prepare for college in Georgia.

1. Complete the online Georgia Student Finance Application (GSFAPP)

2. The GSFAPP is how they can apply for HOPE Scholarship or Grant, Zell Miller Scholarship or Grant, and (if attending an eligible private college) the Tuition Equalization Grant.

3. The GSFAPP can be completed in 3-5 minutes and is good for 10 years.

4. Check their current HOPE/Zell Miller Scholarship GPA Calculation in their GAfutures Dashboard through the My High School HOPE GPA tab.

5. Complete 2024-25 FAFSA – Check out the information in GAfutures to get started
   

*Students must have a GAfutures Student account to be able to access the application and their High School HOPE GPA. Their profile must include their correct name, high school name, address, date of birth, and social security number.
