The Georgia Press Educational Foundation helps Georgia high school seniors and college students who plan to pursue newspaper journalism pay for tuition. Selection weighs financial need alongside a demonstrated interest in journalism and a recommendation from a teacher, counselor, or Georgia Press Association member. Funds are sent directly to the student's college financial aid office, and students must reapply each year they want to be considered.
