College and Testing Information

If a GRSP Scholarship cannot obtain the course work you prefer toward your goal of a degree, would you still be interested in receiving the scholarship?
Do you plan to continue your education in the U.S. after your year in GRSP?*
SAT and TOEFL tests should be taken by October 31. Receipt of original test scores is mandatory for the evaluation of your application and scholarship award. Applicants from non-English speaking countries are required to take the TOEFL test. If you have taken the tests indicate the dates of the test and the scores below. If you have NOT taken the tests, please indicate the dates you have applied and scheduled to take the tests below. Test applications and associated fees are the responsibility of the Applicant. Submit your application regardless of the status of the test dates. You may use the GRSP Code of 5285 and the results will be sent directly to the GRSP office in Savannah, Ga. USA. We have 26 participating colleges and universities within Georgia. Some require scores and some do not. The students do not pick the college or the clubs that sponsor them, so the test scores are necessary for the selection process. While we strongly suggest taking your test by October 31, 2022. If you cannot find a test available before then, please put the test date on the application that you have scheduled. Be sure to send the results to Georgia Rotary Student Program for those tests. We are aware that the international dates in early October have filled up and another is not scheduled until December. If the test can be taken in December, that would be advised, as the results would have time to arrive by the end of this year. To meet the English proficiency requirement, schools will accept a TOEFL 74 or SAT Evidence Based Reading & Writing of 480. If there is a delay in the time for the SAT test, we strongly suggest taking the TOEFL before October, if possible, so the club reviewing the application would have an idea of the student’s ability to understand English.
