Very dissatisfied with there setup for freshman. They require freshman to live on campus, but they are allowed to rush and party. No clear path to help students get started at their school. Took our family for a lot of money with nothing to show for it. Our son is still screwed up today because of what they allow freshman to do.

First and foremost, Georgia has a rich history in education and education is the light of the world. I will want a school from this state to show me the light or pass the light to me or make me the beacon for generations to come. It’s willingness to make the cost of education quite reasonable is another pull to search for the light.
