Many graduate students come to us already bearing the burden of undergraduate loans. For some, graduate education is unaffordable. Some of the ‘best and brightest’ in Georgia, the region, and the nation cannot come to Georgia Southern University because of a lack of support. Students who graduate from Georgia Southern often remain in the state and region so it is in our best interests to help them afford a good graduate education from us. Graduate education is more valuable now than ever before!

You can help Our most pressing need is more scholarships for graduate students. You can create a scholarship in your name that helps to support a graduate student. You can make it possible for intelligent and dedicated graduate students to get the advanced degrees they need to get the jobs of today and tomorrow.

There are two types of Graduate Scholarships:

• Annual Tuition - $25,000 is needed to create an endowed (i.e. perpetual) scholarship that provides $1,000 per year.
• Annual Stipend- $250,000 is needed to create an endowed (i.e. perpetual) stipend scholarship that provides $12,500 per year ($4,000 for tuition, and $8,500 for living expenses).
