Florida First Generation Matching Grant

The First Generation Matching Grant Program (FGMG) is a need-based grant program available to degree-seeking, resident, undergraduate students who demonstrate substantial financial need, are enrolled in eligible participating post secondary institutions, and whose parents have not earned baccalaureate or higher degrees. Available state funds are contingent upon matching contributions from private sources on a one to one dollar basis.

FGMG is a state of Florida decentralized program, which means each participating institution determines application procedures, deadlines, student eligibility, and award amount. This program is available at Florida state universities and Florida colleges (public community colleges).
