The GO! Opportunities Grant Program is a grant that is awarded based on financial need.  Eligibility is based on a family’s adjusted gross income as reported on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). For a family with one dependent child, the maximum adjusted gross income is $25,000. For each additional dependent child in the household, the maximum income increases by $5,000. This grant is available to recent Arkansas high school graduates or General Educational Development (GED) Test recipients who are accepted to a college or university in Arkansas. The grant amount is $1,000 per academic year for full-time students and $500 a year for part-time students. The grant is renewable for up to a total award amount of $4,000 provided the student meets the continuing eligibility standards established by the Arkansas Department of Higher Education.  Click here for more details about the grant (requires Adobe Acrobat).
