All undergraduate students at UGA meet with an academic advisor each semester. This meeting is critical to a student's success as a chance to discuss courses and electives, certification criteria, and general graduation requirements.
Almost all in-state students begin their studies at UGA paying limited tuition or fees. Please note that these amounts are subject to change and are meant to give prospective students an idea of the costs associated with a degree at the University of Georgia College of Education.
Students may qualify for a variety of assistantships, scholarships, and other financial awards to help offset the cost of tuition, housing, and other expenses.
You will have the opportunity to host a kindergarten field trip through Experience UGA, a new initiative to bring Clarke County students to campus each year.
Also, you can find tutoring and volunteer opportunities through the College's outreach Reading Clinic.
You will have the opportunity to study abroad in Modena, Italy (summer study) or Ghana (winter study). Or, you can explore other overseas options through our partnership with the Consortium of Overseas Student Teaching Program.
