Why do I always see that the GA Tech OMSCS is ~$10,000? This is a serious question. If it's essentially free with a good GPA I might actually enroll.

The Georgia program (HOPE) is for in-state high-school students getting their undergraduate degree, not people getting graduate degrees.
Interesting. Guess it would be cheaper to go to an in person graduate program in Europe: https://www.studyineurope.eu/tuition-fees
I was referring to the more generous Zell-Miller scholarship. You get HOPE if you can maintain a GPA > 3.0.
