Welcome to the University of Georgia, America 's first publicly chartered university and one of her finest today. UGA is a place of great tradition and great innovation, where some of the best students in the world meet daily with a world-class faculty on a beautiful and historic campus.
For 8 of the past 10 years, U.S. News has ranked UGA among America 's top 20 public research universities. In the past 10 years, UGA students have won more than 50 national academic awards, including the Rhodes, the Marshall, the Truman, the Goldwater, the Mitchell and the Gates-Cambridge. The university is now ranked fifth in the nation for the number of students participating in study abroad. The Student Learning Center, which brings together the best of an electronic library and classroom space, with a wireless network, hundreds of computer stations and laptop connections, is alive with academic activity at all hours.
The University of Georgia is a place where excellence is the standard. Thank you for your interest.
