UNG Global Engagement

The University of North Georgia is more than just a study abroad destination; it's a home away from home. Students will touch down at the world’s busiest airport, located in the largest metro area in the Southeastern United States; Atlanta, GA. Here, Students will be warmly greeted by UNG staff and shuttled an hour’s drive north, to the picturesque town of Dahlonega.

On campus, students will find community in specialized residence halls, where they can make friends and broaden their cultural perspectives by studying alongside other international and domestic students. This invaluable support continues in the classroom, where world-class faculty offer a rigorous educational experience and a variety of research and internship opportunities.

From the warm welcome at the airport to the quaint town of Dahlonega, students will find safety, community, and opportunities for growth in both their academic and personal endeavors. Welcome to UNG your new home away from home.

Our Commitment To Our Students, Faculty, And Staff

At the University of North Georgia, we deeply value and uphold the cherished right of every American to freely express themselves. It is a hallmark of our history, our tradition, and permeates our culture. As a distinguished Senior Military College, with a legacy spanning over 150 years, we take great pride in our role of cultivating leaders who tirelessly defend these fundamental freedoms for all citizens. The legacy of our graduates in this regard is second to none.

As campus leaders, our primary responsibility is to cultivate an academic environment that ensures this exchange of ideas and the safety of our community. Across all five campuses, we are committed to fostering a welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel empowered to freely express themselves and engage in exploration and learning. However, it is essential that these rights are exercised in a manner that upholds our academic mission, preserves the safety of all, and is in accordance with our institutional policies, without unlawful behavior. This means breaking the law, harassment, intimidation, trespassing, violence, and other criminal acts will not be tolerated at the University of North Georgia.

Together, let's uphold the principles of respect, understanding, and civility as we equip our students to walk toward their purpose.

Bold Forward!
