About this guide
An independent guide to Georgia Promise Scholarship, not an official application or an eligibility decision. Rules, application windows and available funds can change. Confirm your circumstances with the program before changing enrollment or committing money.
Before you start
Distinguish a participating school from a vendor
Georgia publishes separate school and service-provider resources. Schools must review their own participation criteria; businesses should match their offerings to the eligible-expense list and any relevant professional qualifications.
Your next steps
Find the current registration period
Odyssey directs service providers to MyGeorgiaPromise for application information. Use the current calendar there rather than a date in an older handbook. School and vendor application periods need not be the same.
Prepare the provider application evidence
Describe your legal business, educational offerings and applicable qualifications. The service-provider handbook explains the scope of eligible services; consult the current version linked by the program before submitting credentials or attestations.
Submit offerings after provider onboarding
Provider approval and offering approval are distinct stages. Follow the platform's process to submit the individual products or services, then confirm they are available to Georgia families before advertising marketplace access.
Preparation checklist
Use this to get organized. The current official application or handbook controls the full requirements.
- Business identity and authorized representative
- Qualifications matching the proposed service category
- Individual offering descriptions, pricing and eligibility rationale
Submit identity, financial, student and medical records only through the verified official process. Do not upload application documents to ParentSurf or include them in a public review.
Important distinctions
- An approved provider can still have offerings awaiting review.
- A 2025 handbook is useful background, not confirmation of a 2026 application window.
Official resources & further reading
State agencies and their program administrators are the source of application requirements. Older editions are labeled; check the program site for newer guidance.
