Eligibility depends on many factors. To receive aid from the student aid programs offered at Georgia Gwinnett College, students must satisfy the following:
- Be enrolled or accepted for enrollment as a regular student working toward a degree in an eligible program of study.
- Have a high school diploma or a General Education Development (GED) Certificate.
- Be a U.S. Citizen or an eligible non-citizen.
- Have a valid Social Security Number.
- Not be in default on a Federal Stafford Loan or owe an over-payment on a Federal Student Grant.
- Make Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP).
- Register with the Selective Service if required. If the student is a male age 18-25 and has not yet registered with the Selective Service, he can give the Selective Service permission to register him by checking a box on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). He can also register through the Internet at www.sss.gov.
- Sign a statement on the FAFSA certifying that the student (1) will use federal and/or state student financial aid only to pay for attending an institution of higher learning, (2) is not in default on a federal student loan or has made satisfactory arrangements to repay it, (3) does not owe money back on a federal student grant or has made satisfactory arrangements to repay it, and (4) will notify the school if he or she defaults on a federal student loan.
