We thank you for you and your family’s service to our nation!
The 22 TCSG colleges – many with full-time veteran’s assistance programs, veteran’s coordinators, and student veteran’s organizations – are committed to helping you and your family make the smooth transition from military service to civilian employment.
Concerned about the cost of college? You shouldn’t be. The tuition for more than 600 accredited college programs at the TCSG colleges is among the lowest in the Southeast. Combine that with your hard-earned military and veterans benefits as well as some great new grants from the State of Georgia, and you can obtain a world-class education at little expense to you. Plus, TCSG colleges have new financial initiatives specifically for military, veterans, and their families, including: an out-of-state tuition waiver for active duty military, their spouses and dependent children stationed in Georgia.
Your new career is waiting!
