Leadership Scholarships for New Cadets

Leadership scholarships are awarded by the Office of Cadet Admissions. Applicants should complete their FAFSA paperwork.

We have a number of leadership scholarships available to high school students who will be cadets at the University of North Georgia. These scholarships range in amount by donor. The award amount depends on the scholarship awarded. The scholarships are funded by donors who set up scholarship programs for those who want to be cadets.

Leadership scholarship applicants can send an email to wyatt.campbell@ung.edu.

Presidential Tuition Waivers

Presidential Tuition Waivers (PTW) are competitively awarded to out-of-state and international students based on academic performance and/or test scores. All admitted out-of-state and international students who are legally present in the US will be considered and the qualifications of recipients will depend on the competitiveness of the pool.

Recipients may be awarded a half PTW which allows students to pay tuition at the in-state tuition rate plus half the out-of-state rate, or a full PTW which allows recipients to pay tuition at the in-state rate, for up to ten semesters if renewal criteria are met. This results in a savings of up to $25,000 to $50,000 over four years.

Complete the to apply. International students should contact the Center for Global Engagement to determine eligibility.
