These requirements and instructions apply if you are enrolled at another accredited college or university, and you wish to temporarily enroll at UNG for a semester with the intent to return to your previous institution. You may not enroll in learning support courses as a transient student.
Not all courses are offered on all campuses. You must ensure that the course/s you intend to take are offered on your intended campus. To do this, check the online class schedule. Please note that we cannot guarantee the availability of courses or a class schedule at particular times or locations.
All transient students must be admitted to the university before registering for any courses. Accepted transient students are unable to register for courses until the beginning of Add/Drop week of each semester. Transient registration information is available from the Registrar's Office.
Apply for admission online using the GAFutures. Both Georgia and out-of-state residents create an account with GAfutures to apply. If you cannot apply online, download a paper application. You will pay a non-refundable application fee whether you apply online or using paper.
Submit an official letter of Transient Permission from your home institution registrar or dean. Ensure the statement includes your academic standing and eligibility to return to your home institution.
Submit your verification of lawful presence documentation if you wish to pay in-state tuition. This is not required if you pay out-of-state tuition. Out-of-state tuition is much higher than in-state tuition. Admission to UNG is not contingent upon proof of lawful presence. If you no longer wish to be considered for tuition at the in-state rate, please contact us so that we can remove the requirement from your record.
Two weeks after you complete steps 1-3, check your application status to ensure we have received all required documents to evaluate your application.
