12th Grade - Spring Semester

• If you haven’t done so, complete and submit your college financial aid applications and the FAFSA. You can also complete the GSFAPP, the alternative application to apply for the HOPE Scholarship and the Zell Miller Scholarship.
• Check your selective service status for financial aid purposes, if applicable.
• Request your high school send your official transcripts to the colleges to which you are applying through your My GAfutures account.
• Contact the admissions office of the colleges to which you have applied to make sure that your information has been received.
• Keep an eye out for financial aid workshops and seminars, for both you and your parents. There is a lot of help out there when you're looking for information on financial aid.
• Decision time! You should decide on a college by May 1. Notify that school by sending your commitment deposit check. Many schools require that your notification letter is postmarked by this date. This should ensure your place in the entering freshman class. Notify the other schools to which you were accepted of your decision and withdraw your application.
