Grants
Grants are funds that do not require repayment.
A grant is a monetary gift for people pursuing higher education. It is often based on financial need and does not need to be repaid (unless, for example, you withdraw from school and owe a refund). Federal and State Grant aid is determined by the completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Examples of these programs consist of: Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant (GTEG) and Georgia College Completion Grant (GCCG). -
