State of Florida Grant and Scholarship Programs
State of Florida Grant and Scholarship Programs administered by the Office of Student Financial Assistance (Information on a variety of state-funded grants and scholarships)
Students eligible for the Talented Twenty program are guaranteed admission, within space and fiscal limitations, to one of the twelve state universities. These students are considered a priority for the awarding of funds from the Florida Student Assistance Grant (FSAG), a need-based grant. Talented Twenty students must meet FSAG eligibility requirements in order to be eligible for priority funding. Please note that while eligible students are guaranteed admission at one of the state universities, they are not guaranteed admission to the university of their choice.
