Costs
In-State
Out-of-State
Since Georgia is a public university, there are different costs for in-state students and out-of-state students. The sticker price at Georgia is $27,542 for in-state students in GA, and $46,582 for out-of-state students. This sticker price includes costs for tuition, books and supplies, room and board, and other miscellaneous expenses.
It’s also important to note that the cost of attendance can vary from year to year and typically it will rise over your four years in college. With that said, your financial aid will also be recalculated every year to take any price increases, as well as any changes in your financial situation, into account.
Using State Grants at Georgia
If you're a Georgia resident interested in Georgia, be sure to investigate whether you'd qualify for the HOPE Scholarship and/or the Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant Program. The HOPE Scholarship is for students who have made substantial academic achievements. The Tuition Equalization Grant is for students attending private schools, and it helps to make the cost of private school more comparable to public school. Try reaching out to Georgia's financial aid department to see if you qualify for either!
