Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

One of the most amazing things about students at UGA is that I have never heard one person say they don’t like being here. UGA and Athens have so much to offer in so many different categories, that there really is something for everyone. The positive energy of 30,000 people who are happy to be here is captivating, and something you will instantly want to be a part of. It will not take long before you regard Athens as your second home, and after about a week, most students forget how big a school it is.

It’s exciting to be in Athens because there is always something going on, whether it is entertainment, a demonstration, job fairs, or just a chance to hang out with people you just met who are now your best friends. Students are encouraged to explore their talents and make the most of their four years here, and most students are able to achieve their ultimate “college experience.” Sometimes, it seems like we are all characters in some cheesy teen movie because college life in Athens is so classic, but academically, socially, and personally, this school seems to have changed most of us for the better.

Lots of Majors

UGA offers a huge variety of majors to choose from. We are best known for our business schools and science. I don't recommend doing engineering at UGA as it is still growing and not accredited. But anything else: arts, sciences, business are wonderful choices to work from.

Academics

Classes can get tough so its best to go look for help early. The university offers many tutoring resources and many which are free. All professors are required to have office hours so go up to them and ask for help too.

Dining

We are known for the best food services. The dining halls are buffet style and always have a huge variety to choose from for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Unlike other schools, we don't have much to complain when it comes to food. Next to football, good food is our priority. Our dining halls always make an effort for special occasions and changes up dining time with something new or entertaining.
