“Receiving this scholarship again shows Georgia State’s commitment to student success. If it were not for this scholarship, I would not be able to complete my degree and graduate at the end of this semester. Each semester I have been faced with the challenge of paying for my educational expenses. I am happy to share that this feat has been accomplished through the generous
giving of scholarship donors.”
