Welcome Back!

Returning/Readmit/Former Student applicants were once enrolled at East Georgia State College, but have been absent for two or more terms (summer semester included). Students who have attended another college since leaving EGSC are considered for readmission based on their entire academic background.

Note: Returning students are subject to Catalog policies for academic standing such as warning, probation, dismissal, or exclusion. Please contact the Registrar’s Office at 478-289-2014 for guidance on academic standing re-admission policies.

Faxed documents and copies provided by the student are NOT considered official and will not be used for admission purposes. Courses from one institution that are listed on another college transcript will not substitute for an official transcript. Prior educational experience may not be omitted from an application package.

Official formats for receiving transcripts: Parchment, National Student Clearinghouse, Mail

For questions regarding whether transfer credit will be accepted, please refer to our Course Transfer Equivalencies web page. Please note that this is not a complete list because it only includes courses that have transferred to the East Georgia in the past. If you still have questions after reviewing this page, please contact the Registrar’s office records@ega.edu.

Submit your verification of lawful presence documentation if you wish to pay in-state tuition.

    • This is not required if you pay out-of-state tuition.
    • Out-of-state tuition is much higher than in-state tuition. Estimate costs.
    • Admission to EGSC is not contingent upon proof of lawful presence.
    • If you no longer wish to be considered for tuition at the in-state rate, please contact us at admissions@ega.edu so that we can remove the requirement from your record.

All returning students attending in person classes will be required to submit updated immunization records in addition to having a Tetanus shot within the last 10 years. Failure to provide this information will prevent registration.

Students who plan on enrolling in fully online classes or due to conflict with religious beliefs may request an exemption on the immunization form located here.

Returning students need to schedule an appointment with their academic advisor before registering for classes to determine what subjects they will need that lead to fulfill degree requirements.
