🎓💙💛 GGHA PRESENTS: FREE COLLEGE APPLICATION WEEK! 💛💙🎓
📅 October 5–9, 2026
RESIDENTS — THIS IS YOUR TIME TO APPLY TOWARD YOUR TOMORROW! ✨
At the Greater Gadsden Housing Authority, we believe access to information can help open doors. One way GGHA is working to bridge the gap is by keeping residents informed, equipped, and connected to educational opportunities that can lead to a stronger, brighter tomorrow.
Whether you are a graduating high school senior, a current college student, an adult learner, or someone ready for a career change, THIS WEEK is a great time to take that next step. Participating colleges and universities are waiving application fees — which means you can explore your options, APPLY, and SAVE MONEY! 💰🎓
Your future can start with ONE application. Don’t count yourself out. Don’t wait on “someday.” Find the opportunity, complete the application, and give yourself a chance! 🙌🏾
✅ IMPORTANT: Apply through the school’s official application portal, use the listed fee-waiver code when required, and make sure your application fee shows $0.00 before you submit. Some waiver codes are portal-specific.🎓 PARTICIPATING COLLEGES & DIRECT APPLICATION LINKS
