GHP is a residential summer program for gifted and talented high school juniors and seniors. Selection is based on a combination of ability and interest and is highly competitive. Thousands of students were nominated at the state level and those selected as Semifinalists underwent a rigorous interview and audition/review process before being named Finalists.

The 2026 Governor’s Honors Program will take place on the campus of Georgia Southern University, beginning June 14, 2026. Students will spend the mornings in their major area of nomination, exploring topics not usually found in the regular high school classroom for four consecutive weeks. Evenings are filled with opportunities to attend seminars, activities, concerts, and performances.

More information about GHP can be found on the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement website, https://gosa.georgia.gov/governors-honors-program.
