What steps do I need to take in order to get financial aid?

After you have applied for admission to Georgia Tech and have your gtID#, you will need to:

1. Complete the 2010-2011 Georgia Tech Application for Scholarships and Financial Aid (GT APP)
2. Complete the FAFSA Available January 1

For priority consideration, both applications must be completed, processed, and received in our office by March 1. Please note: Federal FAFSA processing can take from one to three weeks.

This is the most widely used application process and the one recommended to ensure consideration for ALL programs administered by the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid (OSFA), including the HOPE Scholarship for Georgia residents. This application process is required for all federal, state, and institutional grant and educational loan programs, and all institutional scholarships awarded by the OSFA. The HOPE Scholarship will also be awarded as a result of using this application process.
