“it told me what to ask and what the renewal GPA looked like, which I was not going to find on my own”Melissa
Strong STEM research culture with awards supporting hands-on work in chemistry and physics.
Selection beyond grades and scores
These awards are not recorded as automatic on grades and scores. Read each award's selection rules, application steps and dates. Meeting a minimum is not an award offer.
Look for the school's stated criteria and whether an additional application is needed.
Confirm the current admission and scholarship deadlines directly with the school.
Check renewal, credit requirements and how other aid affects the award.
The fine print / Three questions to carry forward
Does it apply to us? Confirm the entering year, residency and every eligibility condition.
Can we keep it? Check renewal GPA, credits and how long the award lasts.
Can we combine it? Ask how outside scholarships and other school awards change the offer.

Federal reporting on who actually enrolls at Georgia College, what they paid after aid, and what happened next — independent of anything the school markets.
| Family income | Average net price paid |
|---|---|
| $0–$30,000 | $15,396 |
| $30,001–$48,000 | $16,772 |
| $48,001–$75,000 | $19,179 |
| $75,001–$110,000 | $22,294 |
| $110,001+ | $23,216 |
| All income levels (average) | $20,686 |
That works out to roughly a 32% discount below the federal AY 2021-22 average cost of attendance of $30,258 (College Scorecard — a separate, federally reported figure, not the published cost of attendance shown above).
Georgia College is a public school; Scorecard's net price figure covers in-state, Title-IV-aid-recipient payers only — there is no comparable federal figure for out-of-state students.
From the Georgia College Common Data Set 2021-2022 (school-estimated figures):
At Georgia College, roughly 1 in 50 first-year admits receive institutional merit aid. The average award is $2,685 — about 8% of total cost.
As filed in Georgia College's CDS Section H2A: of 1,502 first-time, full-time degree-seeking freshmen, 25 had no financial need and received institutional merit (non-need) scholarship or grant aid, averaging $2,685. Across all full-time degree-seeking undergraduates: 227 of 5,027, averaging $2,091. Athletic awards are excluded per the CDS definition.
The 2021-2022 column is marked "estimated" in the school's own CDS filing — school-projected figures, not final audited counts.
These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
