The Presidential Scholarship


Greetings from Georgia State!

High-achieving students come to you for guidance on big decisions. Make sure your college-bound seniors don't miss out on the chance to apply for Georgia State University's most prestigious and valuable academic award—The Presidential Scholarship.

Our Presidential Scholarship program recognizes incoming first-year students who were leaders in their high schools and offers them the support and experiences that will set them up to be leaders in their careers and communities. The scholarship is valued at up to $28,803 per year (depending on in/out-of-state student status and participation in our student assistantship program).

Presidential Scholars receive the following benefits for eight semesters:
  • Cost of tuition, housing and mandatory student fees
  • A yearly living expense stipend
  • A one-time $2,500 stipend for credit-bearing study abroad expenses
  • Opportunity for a paid University Assistantship to explore research and engaging work experience on campus
  • Access to individualized classes and mentoring opportunities

The deadline to apply is November 15, 2019! (Student applicants must also complete their Common Application to Georgia State University.)
