Governor's Honors Program
GOVERNOR’S HONORS PROGRAM The Georgia Governor’s Honors Program (GHP) is a residential
summer program for gifted and talented high school students who will be rising
juniors and seniors during the program. The program offers instruction
that is significantly different from the typical high school classroom. It is
designed to provide students with academic, cultural, and social enrichment
necessary to become the next generation of global critical thinkers,
innovators, and leaders. GHP is held in mid-summer (mid-June to mid-July) as a residential educational experience on a college or university campus. Students attend classes in the mornings and afternoons in specific areas of study, and they participate in a wide variety of social and instructional opportunities every evening. Meals and rooms are provided by the program. The only required and expected costs to the students are: travel expenses to and from the interviews; a few basic supplies for classes and dorm rooms; and spending money as desired during the program.
