Financial Aid
Financial Aid is available!
The philosophy of the Financial Aid office at GSTC is that everyone who desires training should have the opportunity to attend school regardless of their financial situation. Financial assistance is offered in the form of grants, scholarships, and federally funded programs. Any student enrolled or any prospective student may apply for financial aid.
To determine eligibility for financial aid, complete the following steps:
1. Complete the free application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at https://fafsa.ed.gov/
George Stone's school code is: 016280
2. After you submitted your online application, please wait at least three (3) business days before contacting our Financial Aid Officer at (850) 941-6200 ext 2129.- IF YOU DO NOT HAVE FINANCIAL AID APPROVAL AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION, YOU MUST BE ABLE TO PAY YOUR FEES AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION.
- PELL GRANT MUST BE RENEWED EACH SCHOOL YEAR IN ORDER FOR FUNDS TO CONTINUE.
FERPA
A student's right to privacy is protected under FERPA - Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. What this means is that we will not discuss your financial aid with anyone unless you have given us written authorization. In addition, students have the right to review their educational records, to request amendment of records, to consent to disclosure of personally identifiable information, and to file complaints with the U.S. Department of Education. If you have further questions about FERPA, please refer to the Rights and Responsibilities Handbook of the Escambia County School District (chapter 10).
