HOPE and Zell Miller Scholarships are provided to students who are Georgia residents and have demonstrated academic achievement. This money goes toward paying all or a portion of a student's tuition at a public State of Georgia institution and some private Georgia-based institutions. To find out more about HOPE eligibility, visit the GAfutures website.
Students must provide a valid Social Security Number to be considered for the HOPE and Zell Miller Scholarships. When you login to GAfutures, the system will be unable to calculate your HOPE GPA to determine eligibility unless you have submitted a valid Social Security Card and number to the counseling office. The Georgia Student Finance Commission uses the Social Security Number to link to the transcript.
