The USG Complete College Georgia Momentum Grants provide early stage funding and support for institutions to initiate and implement high-impact projects aligned with the goals of Complete College Georgia.
The 2017 Momentum Grant is a follow-up to the 2017 Advising Academy that gathered advising teams from across the system to work together to develop institutional plans for addressing Momentum Year elements and outline the role of advising in providing them to each incoming freshman. As stated at the Advising Academy, these grants are intended to be the next stage in planning to produce concrete, actionable steps to address identified challenges.
The USG Incubator Grants created the space for institutions to innovate around the core principals of Complete College Georgia. There is tremendous interest in institutions across the system to invent creative solutions for student success, and the incubator funding has provided the critical support necessary for moving these ideas to reality.
Essential to these grants from the University System is the expectation that these opportunities be scalable and sustainable, to provide fuel to reimagine higher education across the state.
