Georgia tech and CSS profile - required for merit scholarship consideration?

Applying to College
1

My kid is applying to Georgia tech. We won’t qualify for need based aid but would like to be considered for merit scholarships (if anything is even available). It’s not going to be a deal breaker for accepting if we get admitted. Do I need to file css profile. The college admissions rep said, yes cc is needed. But their website says css is only needed if you need need-based aid. Please help

You might call the financial aid office and ask.

@momsearcheng @chmcnm?

yeah I actually called and they suggested to apply, and even said its required. but their website says otherwise (that CSS is only needed for need-based aid). so thought of asking here if anyone have a view and guidance. thanks

CSS profile or any form is not necessary for merit. Do not expect merit for OOS. GATECH is extremely competitive for OOS.
If instate then you get state merit (Hope or Zell.)

So is CSS profile required for OOS students for any GA scholarship consideration?
