The Provost Scholarship awards 60 first-year, non-resident students an out-of-state tuition waiver for eight semesters. Scholars are selected by the Office of Special Scholarships.
Students will be notified approximately the same time as their financial aid offer becomes available. Students who are not selected will not be contacted.
Students selected as Provost Scholars are those who demonstrate extraordinary academic achievement, outstanding leadership skills, and have high potential to contribute inside and outside the classroom at Georgia Tech.
