Acceptance Checklist
Congratulations on your acceptance to the University of West Georgia! We know this is an exciting time for you as you finalize your plans to enroll! The following is information to guide you in completing the enrollment process:
Apply for Financial Aid.
For federal or state financial aid programs, which include the HOPE scholarship, you will need to complete the FAFSA form. This can be done via the web at www.fafsa.ed.gov. You will need to have this information sent to UWG, by providing our Title IV school code of 001601. Or if you prefer to only apply for the HOPE scholarship, you can complete the Georgia HOPE Scholarship and Grant Application Form online, which can be found at www.gacollege411.org.
Submit Immunization Form
A UWG Immunization Form must be completed by a physician or health official and returned prior to enrollment. Please be aware that some immunizations are offered in sequence, with a required wait period between shots, therefore you need to start this process early to ensure completion prior to enrollment.
The Immunization Form can be found here.
Submit Health Form
A UWG Health Form must be completed and returned prior to enrollment.
The Health Form can be found here.
