GEORGIA STATE DAY 2021 IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO SUPPORT STUDENTS! CLICK HERE TO MAKE A GIFT

Student Success

Over 55% of Georgia State students are Pell-eligible, and over 70% have unmet financial need beyond their aid, loans, scholarships, and family contributions.

Collectively, the Student Success funds below help thousands of students each year by providing timely financial assistance that helps students (facing a financial shortfall) overcome barriers, maintain enrollment, and stay on course to graduation.

Panther Retention Grants: Mini-grants awarded to students to help cover relatively small balances of tuition and fees
Emergency Assistance Grants: Financial assistance for basic household expenses (e.g., rent, childcare, transportation, etc.)
The Food Pantry: Distribution of food and hygiene products to address hunger among GSU students and their families
Collegiate Recovery Program Fund: Year-round programming for students facing addiction and substance abuse

Make a gift TODAY to support the college success of Georgia State students!
