Georgia State has earned a seat alongside the nation’s most respected higher-education institutions. Home to more than 52,000 unique students across six campuses, we’re proud to award degrees to 10,000-plus career-ready graduates each year. Few universities have come so far, so fast, and we’re maintaining that momentum each day.

We are committed to you — your path, your success, your future — and we’ll work right alongside you to make sure you reach your goals and realize your dreams as soon as possible. It’s why we’ve been called by The New York Times “an innovative engine of social mobility.”
