The office of Admissions is now taking applications for the Spring 2009 term. The Admission's deadline for Spring is November 15, 2008.

Please visit the Admission's Website for the admission's guidelines, documents, and deadline dates: http://www.westga.edu/~admiss/

Below are different scenarios that may help you with the admission's process:

Case # 1: I haven't been in school for years. I have never attended UWG. Where do I start?

If you've been out of school for more than 5 years and never attended college , you will not be required to take the SAT and some other requirements will be waived. However, you will have to take a placement exam and may be required to take Learning Support/ Remedial courses before being allowed to enroll in eCore or other college-credit courses.

As of June 2003: "A student with LS requirements who is enrolled in all required LS courses may now take an eCore course if the student has met the LS prerequisite(s) for the course. (For example, a stgudent with an LS requirement only in math who is enolled in LS math may take an eCore course in English.) The student must drop the eCore course(s) if dropping the required LS course(s)."

Case 2. To be classified as a non-traditional student, one must have not attended high school/college within the past five (5) years, and earned no more than 45 quarter/30 semester hours of transferable college credit.

In either case case 1 or case 2 , see this website: http://www.westga.edu/~admiss/ for a quick review of the admission documents you will need.

If you were previously admitted to UWG but have not registered for/ attended classes in more than one calendar year, you will need to re-apply to UWG.
