Application for UGA's Top Freshman Scholarship Program Available Soon

The Foundation Fellowship and Bernard Ramsey Honors Scholarships are the most prestigious undergraduate scholarship programs at the University, if not in the country.

The Foundation Fellowship currently provides an annual stipend of $11,072 for in-state students (in addition to the HOPE or Zell Miller Scholarship) and $18,180 for out-of-state students (plus an out-of-state tuition waiver). The Bernard Ramsey Honors Scholarship provides $5,536 for in-state students (in addition to the HOPE or Zell Miller Scholarship) and $9,090 for out-of-state students (plus and out-of-state tuition waiver). Much more than financial support, program membership provides: Spring break travel-study programs, a May study abroad program at Oxford in England immediately following the first year, travel-study grants closely related to students’ academic and professional goals, which can be combined with study overseas for a full semester or academic year, grants to attend research and academic conferences, seminars and book discussions with UGA and visiting professors, and faculty and peer mentoring. For more information about the amazing opportunities for Foundation Fellows and Bernard Ramsey Honors Scholars, please visit the Honors Program website. 

To be considered, all applicants must be current high school seniors with a minimum unweighted high school GPA of 3.80 and a minimum combined, super-scored SAT total score of 2100 or ACT composite score of 31.

This separate scholarship application will be available in early September on the admissions website.  The deadline is November 4, 2014.
