Unless your child gets significant merit from an out of state or private university, UGA and Tech are tremendous values even without HOPE.

The proposal to make HOPE needs based (which probably has some merit) is going nowhere. The republicans don’t support it and therefore, it won’t get any traction.

Now, you can expect the amount to decrease over time, but even so, UGA etc will most likely be your best bet from a financial perspective. If finances don’t matter, then I have a hard time understanding how the 8-10 thousand that HOPE covers is a big incentive to stay in state.
