Go Higher Grant
Better Education, Better Life
The new Go Higher Grant can get you on your way.
Are you stuck in a job you don't enjoy? Do you want better pay, but don't qualify for a promotion? The answer is college. A college education can lead you to the job of your dreams with the pay you desire.
A new, need-based grant program is available for adults like you. The Go Higher Grant gives adults age 24 or older up to $1,000 for one academic year when they enroll in a participating Kentucky college or university less than half-time, which is usually one or two courses. The award covers tuition and a book allowance of $50 per credit hour.
To be eligible you must:
- Be a Kentucky resident
- Be a U.S. citizen, national or permanent resident
- Be age 24 or older
- Demonstrate financial need
To apply for the 2010-2011 year, you must complete a Go Higher Grant application and a Free Application for Federal Student Aid. There is no application deadline, but students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible because funds are limited.
