The REACH Georgia Scholarship Program supports the educational goals of low-income, high-achieving middle school students in Georgia. Rising 8th-grade students who attend one of the REACH county school systems are eligible to apply. Recipients are chosen for their academic promise and demonstration of financial need. Special consideration is given to first-generation college students, students with less than a 3.0 GPA but have the potential to make A and B grades, students with no disciplinary infractions, and students with the potential to succeed at the postsecondary level. This program is a recommendation-only program.
