Florida Aid Programs

There are two aid programs from the State of Florida available to graduate students: 

• Florida Bright Futures Scholarships, and 
• Honorably Discharged Graduate Assistance Program (HDGAP)

These programs are not renewable. Graduate students may receive aid from one of the Bright Futures (Academic or Medallion) for their first semester of graduate study, if they meet the conditions prescribed by the State (see Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program for more information). 

Students may be selected to receive funding from the HDGAP program in subsequent academic years on a funds-available basis if they continue to meet the eligibility requirements (see Honorably Discharged Graduate Assistance Program for more information).
