Tuition And Financial Aid 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.
A close working relationship with your advisor is key as you progress through your program of study. Please note that most graduate students at UGA are not assigned to a faculty advisor until after admittance.
Engage with and learn from leaders in the field of workforce education. With a small group size of 20 students, you will have the opportunity to build strong professional and personal relationships with other graduate students.
The EdD in Workforce Education offers courses in the late afternoons and evenings. This provides you an opportunity for continued employment while you pursue the degree. You may take courses during the summer session and online.
