Early Graduation Scholarship Grant (EGSG) Program
Arizona’s Early Graduation Scholarship Grant (EGSG) program is a non-need based college access grant designed to encourage high school students to graduate early and promptly attend a regionally or nationally accredited Arizona postsecondary institution or vocational program.
Students who graduate from a high school or charter school at least one semester early and enroll full time at an eligible postsecondary institution may receive up to $1,500; and students who graduate at least one year early may receive up to $2,000.
Minimum Requirements for the EGSG Program:
-
Must be a resident of Arizona for at least the previous 12 months (at the time of application)
-
Must graduate from an Arizona public high school or charter school at least one semester earlier than your cohort class is scheduled to graduate.
-
Must achieve passing scores on all required components of the Arizona Instrument to measure Standards (AIMS).
-
Must enroll in at least half-time in a regionally or nationally accredited Arizona postsecondary institution or vocational program (at least 8 months in length).
There are over 90 institutions in Arizona (Universities, Colleges, Community Colleges and Vocational Schools) that students can attend and use their EGSG funds.
