Georgia Tech Val-Sal Scholars

New students wear their RAT caps at new student convocation

Georgia Tech is committed to expanding access and reducing financial barriers for our state’s most talented students. To realize this vision, valedictorians and salutatorians who are Georgia residents with significant financial need as demonstrated through the financial aid application process may be eligible to receive an annual $2,500 Georgia Tech Val-Sal Scholarship.

Scholars who are selected for the Val-Sal Scholarship and are eligible for a Federal Pell Grant may be eligible for an additional $2,500 (total of $5,000).

This program builds upon the 2017 decision to offer automatic acceptance to all qualifying Georgia high school valedictorians and salutatorians.
