Brenau University Launches 'Brenau Promise' to Fully Fund Tuition for Eligible Local HOPE and Pell Recipients

Brenau University has introduced a new financial aid program called Brenau Promise, aimed at first-year students who receive HOPE and Pell grants. Starting in fall 2024, this program will cover the remaining tuition and the Institutional & Instructional development fee for eligible students after other scholarships and grants are applied.

To be eligible for the Brenau Promise, students must be first-time, full-time freshmen attending classes in person for the 2024-25 academic year. They must also be Georgia residents, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and qualify for Pell Grant funding and either the Zell Miller or HOPE Scholarship.

The Brenau Promise is designed to help qualifying students cover their tuition costs throughout their undergraduate studies at Brenau, supporting the university's goal to make higher education more affordable, especially for those who may struggle with the costs of private university education.

It is important to note that the Brenau Promise does not cover other expenses such as transportation, books, housing, and meals. Students will need to find other funding sources or loans to manage these costs. Additionally, students must maintain their eligibility to continue receiving benefits from the program.
