  The scholarship provides up to $6,500 per student for the first year (2025-2026 academic year), with funds available for various educational expenses such as tuition, textbooks, tutoring, and transportation services. The Georgia Education Savings Authority (GESA) administers the program, ensuring a seamless experience for families, schools, and service providers.
  
  Applications for the scholarship are open from June 1 to June 30, 2025, with initial funding available in July 2025. Priority consideration is given to students whose family income does not exceed 400% of the federal poverty level and those who have previously received the scholarship.
  
  The program emphasizes empowering families to make informed educational decisions, supporting them with necessary information, and maintaining fiscal accountability and transparency. The Georgia Promise Scholarship is a significant step towards providing families with the flexibility to choose educational paths that best meet their children's needs.
