UNG Welcomes our Tennessee and North Carolina Neighbors!

It pays to be our neighbor. — For Our Neighbors in Hamilton, Bradley, Polk, Cherokee, Graham, Clay, Swain, Macon, & Jackson Counties

If you or your parent/legal guardian live in any of these border counties, you're eligible to attend UNG using in-state tuition rates.

A key part of the college search is finding the best school that's not too far from home. At the University of North Georgia, we know we can make the short list for any high school senior's college search, but we also don't want a state line to keep our neighbors to the north from attending UNG.

That's why, for select counties in Southeast Tennessee and Southwest North Carolina, we are offering in-state tuition for incoming students!

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!
