UNG sets scholarship record

Made possible by donor support, the University of North Georgia (UNG) Foundation provided a record-breaking $3.7M in scholarship funds to 1,400 students during the 2023-24 academic year.

Scholarship recipients and philanthropy were celebrated at the recent 11th annual UNG Gala on the Dahlonega Campus.

About 93% of UNG students seek financial assistance each year.

Through the generosity of donors, 54 cadets were able to travel internationally to participate in exchanges, internships, world-class training experiences, and conferences in 15 countries in Asia, Europe and South America, something Rumley described as “life-changing.” Cadets are also able to train and compete at the highest level in small-unit tactics, mountaineering, marksmanship, music, and precision drill.
