In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, we know many students are facing tough challenges. Georgia Military College is here for you, and we are doing everything we can to ensure no one is left behind. We have plans to provide extensions and support for those affected with the goal of completing the term. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities, and we’ll be flexible and supportive as we move forward. As Quarter 1 ends, we remain committed to your success, so please check here regularly for updates as we monitor recovery efforts. For those who cannot make it to campus, GMC will make every effort to work with you individually. Additionally, we are closely monitoring the development and potential impact of Hurricane Milton. At this time, the storm’s path is being tracked carefully, and there is no immediate cause for alarm in our area. However, we want to ensure that you are prepared and informed in case the situation changes. Your safety is our top priority, and we will communicate any necessary actions promptly on our website, through email, text, and social media as necessary. Learn More

What Kind of Student Am I?

2024 Schedule

Degree Seeking

Degree seeking students make up the largest segment of our student body. We offer Associates and Bachelor’s degrees in a variety of majors, as well as the opportunity to transfer credit to four-year schools to complete a bachelor’s degree programs.

Non-Degree Seeking

Students not seeking a degree at GMC who wish to attend for personal enrichment are welcome at GMC and encouraged to attend. However, because regular admissions and prerequisite requirements still apply while certain financial options may be limited, it is recommended that such students declare a major while attending at GMC.

First-Time Freshmen

Students who are entering college for the first time are considered first-time freshmen.  First-time freshmen are degree-seeking students.  If you have ever attended another college, you cannot be considered a first-time freshmen (does not apply to students enrolled in Dual Enrollment programs).

Transfer Students

Degree seeking students who have attended another college in the past are considered transfer students.

Transient Students

Transient students have temporary permission from another school to attend GMC for a specific time frame (usually one term).  Many of our transient students enjoy the convenience of GMC’s 8-week quarter system, allowing them to complete required classes in a shorter time frame.

Instead of a transcript, a transient student must provide transient authorization (usually a letter or form) from their primary institution’s registrar’s office.  This authorization should list the courses the student may take at GMC as well as when the courses should be taken.

Dual Enrollment 

Georgia Military College recognizes the need to provide academically talented high school students with opportunities for acceleration of their formal academic programs. This recognition has led to the development of an organized dual enrollment program in which the student, while continuing his/her enrollment in high school as a sophomore, junior, or senior, enrolls in courses for college credit.

Academic Excellence.
Since 1879.

We’ve been educating bright minds for well over a century. That’s why a degree from GMC means more than just a great education. It means success.
