Emergency Grants for Tuition and Fees

Emergency Tuition Grants – Chattahoochee Tech Foundation maintains an Emergency Tuition Grant program which was established to assist currently enrolled Chattahoochee Technical College students who are in an emergency situation and at risk of not continuing their education due to unexpected financial dilemmas. A student may be assisted with an emergency grant one time only during their enrollment at Chattahoochee Technical College. Students must meet specified criteria established by the Foundation, which may be changed or amended year-to-year based on donor intent, fund availability, and extraneous need circumstances. Emergency Tuition Grant applications are accepted prior to fall, spring, and summer semesters and based on fund availability.  Awarded funds are limited to a maximum of 50% of a student’s tuition and fees at the current in-state student rate after all financial aid has been applied. If a student is subsequently awarded financial aid the same semester receiving an emergency grant, the amount of the emergency grant may be adjusted or fully rescinded based on the updated financial aid award. In the event that an emergency grant is rescinded, the student remains eligible to reapply for emergency assistance in the future. Out-of-state and International students may apply, but will only be funded at the equivalency of the in-state tuition rate.  All other sources of financial assistance must be exhausted before making an application for funds.

A student cannot be on Financial Suspension (less than 67% completion) or have an outstanding balance hold on their student account.
