Support for Every Step of Your Journey

Every student brings different goals, experiences and responsibilities to college. University College connects you with flexible learning options, academic support and practical resources designed to help you move forward with confidence.

Adult Learners

Returning to college can be a major step, but you do not have to navigate it alone. Georgia Southern supports adult learners who are beginning a degree, returning after time away or balancing college with work, family and other responsibilities.

Explore flexible degree options, personalized advising and resources designed to help you understand admissions, transfer credit, financial aid and degree completion.

Whether you are advancing in your current career or preparing for something new, we can help you turn your experience into momentum.

Credit for Prior Learning

Your professional, military, technical and personal learning experiences may be worth college credit.

Credit for Prior Learning allows eligible students to demonstrate college-level knowledge gained outside a traditional classroom. Depending on your experience and academic program, credit may be awarded through approved exams, professional credentials, military training, portfolio review or other assessment methods.

Earning credit for prior learning can help reduce the number of courses you need, shorten your time to graduation and lower the overall cost of your degree.

An academic advisor can help you understand which options may apply to your program and experience.
