The University of Georgia – closer to home
UGA-Tifton combines the academic standards and resources of the University of Georgia with the personal scale of a smaller campus. Students take UGA courses, work with UGA faculty and advisors, and earn a University of Georgia degree.
A campus where people know you
Transfer students often arrive with very specific questions: Which credits apply? What prerequisites am I missing? Which courses do I need next? At UGA-Tifton, students have direct access to advisors, faculty, and staff who can help them navigate those questions. Learn more about the University of Georgia Tifton campus.

Designed for transfer students

You are a Bulldog
UGA-Tifton is not a separate college using the UGA name. Students enrolled at UGA-Tifton are University of Georgia students. The campus location is different; the University of Georgia degree is the same.
