Official Financial Aid Offers reflect the applicable Award Year’s Cost of Attendance (COA) and HOPE and Zell Miller Scholarship award amounts as well as any other Federal Student Aid (FSA), Outside Scholarships and Other Resources of which OSFA has been informed. When we create or revise Official Financial Aid Offers, we automatically accept all gift aid that appears on the student’s Financial Aid Offer; therefore, a student who has an Official Financial Aid Offer comprised only of gift aid is not required to take any further action on that offer.
2026-27 Official Financial Aid Offers – OSFA anticipates creating 2026-27 Official Financial Aid Offers in June 2026, for the students who had completed the 2026-27 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) Process and/or the Georgia Scholarship / Grant Application (GSFAPP).
See How to View or Accept / Decline Official Financial Aid Offers on Athena below for step-by-step guidance on this process.
