Founded in 1885, Georgia Tech has been at the forefront of technological research and innovation both in the South and in the United States more generally. In addition to the groundbreaking research conducted by the university’s faculty and students, the institution has led the way in inclusiveness in the region, standing out as one of the first educational institutions in the Deep South to accept students of color. As part of this historic commitment to education for students of all backgrounds, Georgia Tech offers a range of merit-based scholarships for undergraduate students.
Among the most prominent of these scholarships is the HOPE Scholarship. As of the 2017-18 academic year, the HOPE Scholarship provides a maximum of $7,200 for two semesters of enrollment. To be eligible for this competitive award, an applicant must be either a United States citizen or a permanent resident, as well as a resident of Georgia. Applicants must also fulfill criteria related to high school diplomas and academic achievement.
