Admissions Checklist:

  1. Apply Online
     
  2. Pay the $20 non-refundable application fee online as you submit your online application. We accept official application fee waivers from College Board, ACT, and NACAC. You can also mail your payment (check or money order ONLY) to the Swainsboro Business Office. Please include student ID# on payment or waiver.
     
  3. Have your guidance counselor send us your official high school transcript. EGSC accepts mailed, faxed, emailed, or e-transcripts that come directly from the high school. To process transcripts, we must recalculate your GPA based on the required high school curriculum, so it may appear lower than you originally anticipated because we do not factor in classes like Art, Drama, Theater, etc.  *Students that do not have a high school diploma can submit a copy of their GED score report
     
  4. Tell us what classes you are taking during your Senior year. We have to review a list of all courses you are taking during your Senior year of high school if you are still enrolled. This is to be sure you are on track to complete the required high school curriculum. 
     
  5. Send us official copies of your SAT/ACT scores from the testing agency (SAT Code - 5200, ACT Code - 0799). Although we do not require SAT/ACT scores for admission purposes, if  you took either test, we encourage you to submit them as this could exempt you from portions of the Compass/Accuplacer exam, provided they meet required minimum scores. Pleace click here for more information regarding exemptions, Please allow up to 4 weeks for test scores to be mailed as we are unable to upload these electronically.​ 
    You are allowed to print out an official SAT score report online. 
     
  6. Request transcripts from previous colleges/technical Institutions. Transcripts must be sent from any and ALL previous colleges / universities as well as any and ALL previous technical institutions, including those taken as a Dual Enrollment/MOWR  Student. Failure to report a previous institution may result in your denial/dismissal from East Georgia State and you will not receive any Financial Assistance. Transcripts will not be deemed official if sent via fax or if student has "In Progress" grades at another institution. Those that attended a technical school and earned Hope hours are required to submit a HOPE verification form.
    • The TCSG-USG agreement specifies 27 general education courses that are guaranteed to transfer between SACSCOC-accredited institutions. Course work taken at two-year Technical Colleges which are accredited through the Commission on Colleges and part of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) will be accepted in transfer as stipulated in the articulation agreement between the Board of Regents (BOR) of the University System of Georgia and the TCSG. View the list of courses accepted through the BOR/TCSG articulation.
