I'm applying to different colleges and Georgia Military College caught my interest. But I couldn't find much information about their admissions process. Is it competitive? Do they look for specific attributes in applicants?
Georgia Military College operates as a liberal arts junior college and follows a policy of open admissions. This means they do not have a highly competitive or selective admissions process—essentially, they accept almost every student who applies.
While many colleges scrutinize GPA, standardized test scores, or require essays and letters of recommendation, Georgia Military College has a more straightforward approach. They require a high school diploma or GED completion, though they do review your high school coursework. They also offer pathways for home-schooled students and adult learners who haven't previously attended college.
However, as with any college, meeting the minimum requirements allows you to gain entry, but achieving success once you're enrolled is another matter. Georgia Military College values discipline, leadership, and character development, as being a military school, these attributes play a significant role in their educational philosophy. So, they'll likely look for those traits in their students, and you'll probably feel more at home if you share these values.
Don't forget to confirm if the military-style education offered aligns with your career and educational goals before applying.
