Your real odds
Competitiveness is unclear from public information, but CDFIs are built to fund businesses that banks turn away, so a thin credit file or unconventional profile works less against you here than it would elsewhere.
Catalyst exists specifically to serve applicants in underserved areas or without conventional financing options, and that mission shapes who they prioritize.

Worth knowing
Catalyst explicitly offers gap financing on impact loans and partners with nonprofits, so an existing relationship with a nonprofit or community organization in Georgia is worth naming in your application.
