  Financial Aid Information

West Georgia Technical College offers a comprehensive program of financial aid for students who, without such aid, would be unable to continue their education. Through this financial aid program, eligible students can receive one or more types of financial aid. Financial Aid is generally in the form of grants, scholarships, and/or a work-study program.

Most financial aid at West Georgia Technical College is awarded on the basis of a student's academic progress and proven financial "need." Financial need is defined as the difference between a family's resources and the total expenses of attending the College. West Georgia Technical College uses the Free Application for Federal Student Aid to measure a family's financial strength.
