GNTC supports disabled veterans through education

Georgia Northwestern Technical College (GNTC) announces it is accepting applications through April 30 for the summer term for a new state scholarship for disabled veterans.

Funded by voluntary state income tax return donations, the Disabled Veterans Support Scholarship (DVSS) was created to support U.S. military veterans with service-connected disabilities as they pursue technical education in Georgia. Administered by the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) Foundation, DVSS helps veterans focus on completing their programs and preparing for high-demand careers by addressing the full cost of attendance, including tuition, required supplies and other real costs.

“I am excited for the opportunities that the Disabled Veterans Support Scholarship will offer to disabled veterans seeking to continue their education,” said Josh Hickman, Military-Connected Services coordinator at GNTC. “This scholarship will provide not only tuition assistance but also an opportunity to help with tools, books, safety equipment and other educational costs, making technical education even more accessible to our veteran students.”

DVSS is designed to remove financial barriers so that veterans can focus on gaining skills, completing training and transitioning into high-demand careers across Georgia.

Eligible veterans enrolled in degree, diploma or technical certificate programs are encouraged to apply.

Eligible applicants must:

  • Be a U.S. military veteran (not a dependent)
  • Be enrolled in a credit-bearing degree, diploma or technical certificate program
  • Attend full-time or part-time
  • Provide valid U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs documentation showing a service-connected disability rating.

Veterans with 0%-50% disability are eligible for up to $500 per term, capped at $1,500 annually; veterans with 60%-100% disability are eligible for up to $1,000 per term, capped at $3,000 annually. Applicants must provide valid U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs documentation of their disability level.
