About this scholarship

Georgia waives tuition, fees and, where applicable, on-campus housing for students with foster care or DFCS adoption history who attend a Technical College System of Georgia school. Eligibility is determined on a rolling basis rather than by deadline.

Who can apply

Applicants must be under 28 and currently in foster care, have experienced foster care, or have been placed for adoption by the Georgia Division of Family and Children Services.

Every scholarship in this directory is exclusively for current or former foster youth. Read the sponsor’s own eligibility rules before you start — they decide who qualifies.
