Welcome to Georgia Highlands College and
thanks for visiting us online!
Education is the key to achieving personal and professional goals,
and Georgia Highlands College is proud to be a part of the life-long learning
process. Students come to GHC to take academic credit classes
either to complete a degree or to meet a special need, or they come
to enroll in a variety of continuing education offerings.
Georgia Highlands College is a two-year
unit of the University System of Georgia
and, as such, offers students many benefits including low tuition,
high quality classes that correspond to those in other institutions
within the University System, and transfer opportunities to four-
year institutions within the University System. We understand the
importance of community and personal involvement in the
education process, and we recognize that technology is a vital part
of today’s world. We strive to incorporate technological
considerations into our classes, schedules, services, and activities. From our dedicated instructors
and intimate campus settings to our innovative instructional technology
and flexible course offerings, meeting
students' needs is our utmost objective. The college locations
serve students in a number of counties in Northwest Georgia.
If you are a current student at Georgia Highlands College, we are privileged to have you in our
institution. If you are considering us for your educational
endeavors, we look forward to being a part of your future.
Sincerely,
Virginia M. Carson, Ph.D.
