FSGA Scholars is a scholarship program made possible by the Florida State Golf Association and our Future of Golf Foundation. In the Spring each year, the FSGA selects a minimum of five golfers from the FJT's graduating class to be awarded a renewable four-year scholarship. A total of $10,000 in college scholarships will be awarded each year, resulting in $40,000 granted to each graduating class.

Requirements for Scholarship Renewals for the payment of the scholarship (usually the financial aid department). Email all questions and information to dgreen@fsga.org.

The Scholarship Committee reviews each renewal every year. A GPA of 3.0 or higher, a brief letter detailing the recent school year and additional information are used in the renewal determination process.  The brief letter (or email) should focus on two points; what was the best part of the previous school year, and what was the worst part and what did you learn.
