Paying for Housing at the University of West Georgia
If you choose to live in a UWG dorm, the contract that you sign for housing and meal plans is between you and UWG. Housing and meal plan bills cannot be paid to Georgia Highlands College. You'll need to contact Student Financial Services at UWG to pay for those.

If you do not pay your housing or meal plan bill with the University of West Georgia, you will not be able to register for classes that you need from Georgia Highlands.

Applying Financial Aid to Housing Costs at the University of West Georgia
As an ATP student, you receive your financial aid awards through Georgia Highlands College. No money from your financial aid award is automatically transferred to the University of West Georgia to cover housing costs.

Financial aid money is first applied to your tuition and fees with Georgia Highlands. If money is left over from the financial aid award, a refund check is mailed to the address that GHC has on file for you. Many students make the mistake of spending the refund money before paying their housing bills. Do not do this! FIRST be sure that your housing bill is paid. Ask the folks at Student Financial Services whether you owe any money for housing or meal plans.
