Hi everyone, so I'm considering Georgia Military College but can't seem to figure out what the application process is like. Can any current students or recent applicants give some insight into what they look for in their student applications? Thanks!
Absolutely, Georgia Military College operates a bit differently than many typical four-year universities. As an open enrollment institution, their application process is pretty straightforward and inclusive, reflecting their commitment to accommodate a wide variety of students.
When you apply, you'll need to complete the online application form. This form requires basic information such as your contact and demographic details, academic history, and a few short questions about your readiness for the rigor of college academia.
You'll also need to provide your high school or college transcripts (if you're a transfer student). If you've been out of school for a while, GED scores are accepted as well. Make sure these are sent over to Georgia Military College from your previous institutions. They accept both electronic and mail-delivered transcripts but stress that electronic is quicker and easier.
While many colleges require ACT or SAT scores, Georgia Military College instead requires placement exams, specifically the ACCUPLACER exam, to better understand your academic level in reading, writing, and mathematics. However, if you've already taken the SAT or ACT, you can use these in place of the ACCUPLACER.
Just keep in mind that Georgia Military College is looking for committed, motivated individuals who are ready to take on the challenge of military disciplines in addition to their academic pursuits. While they are open enrollment, it is still important to demonstrate this determination in your application.
Once you've submitted all your application materials, there's a waiting period which can vary, after which you'll be informed of their decision.
If you have more detailed questions, it may be best to reach out directly to the admissions office to ensure you're getting the most accurate and up-to-date information. Best of luck with your application!
