Georgia Highlands College (GHC) is encouraging prospective students across Northwest Georgia to take advantage of a limited-time offer: the college is waiving its $30 application fee through the month of March.

College officials say the fee waiver makes March an ideal time for students to apply for upcoming summer classes or to get a head start on enrollment for fall semester.

GHC also reminds students that summer financial aid options may be available, similar to what students can use in fall and spring semesters, including the HOPE Scholarship and Zell Miller Scholarship, depending on eligibility. A full breakdown of the summer financial aid process is available through the college’s financial aid resources.

Georgia Highlands offers in-person, remote, and hybrid classes designed to fit different schedules and lifestyles. The college says its degree programs are built to support local workforce needs, including:

  • Bachelor of Science in Digital Media and Communication

  • Bachelor of Science in Nursing

  • Bachelor of Business Administration in Logistics and Supply Chain Management

  • Bachelor of Science in Environmental and Natural Resources

  • Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice

Future students can learn more about GHC and connect with an admissions counselor by completing the college’s admissions inquiry form.

Upcoming start dates include:

  • eCore, eMajor, and Georgia Film Academy classes: start as early as March 9

  • Full-term summer classes: begin May 27

  • June Session: begins May 27

  • July Session: begins June 23

GHC says students interested in getting started should apply during March to take advantage of the application fee waiver.
