President Schecter

Happy New Year, EGSC!  All of you have been on my mind the last few days, as I think about so much that was accomplished in 2023 and the fantastic celebrations that took place for the 50th anniversary of the College. As we begin the journey of the next 50 years, I could not be more excited to be a part of this truly amazing campus.

I want to welcome our new and returning students, faculty, and staff to East Georgia State College to Spring semester 2024! You all are the heartbeat of this life changing community. If you are visiting our webpage to explore what we have to offer, I thank you for your interest and invite you to reach out to our enthusiastic, professional staff to learn more. They would love to speak with you and will ensure you receive all of the information you need, from courses and degrees to housing and student life.

EGSC’s mission has been transforming families since 1973 - to deliver an outstanding education and support our students every step of the way from application to walking across the stage at commencement and receiving their well-earned diplomas. We offer tailored degree pathways to a diverse body of students from all backgrounds, many of whom are first generation college students or non-traditional students, while offering the lowest tuition rates in the system. We are one of only seven colleges in the University System of Georgia to offer the CHOICE Program for Inclusive Learning, which serves those students who may have intellectual or development challenges, and provides them with a variety of college experiences and opportunities for growth to prepare them for the next chapter of their lives.

I love the natural beauty of our beautiful campus and hope you do, as well.  We are a small, rural college with a spirit that seeps in and changes our students in ways that help them discover who they are and what they can accomplish, and in turn, make the world a better place.  There is no better time than now to be a part of our Bobcat family and allow us to walk with you toward a more fulfilling and prosperous future!

Go Bobcats!
