Overview

University of West Georgia's Geography, General is an integrative discipline in which scholars endeavor to understand the role of humans in producing the social and biophysical worlds in which they live.

Course Details

Total tuition costs and fees may vary, depending on the instructional method of the courses in which the student chooses to enroll.
The more courses a student takes in a single term, the more they will typically save in fees and total cost.
Face-to-face or partially online courses are charged at the general tuition rate and all mandatory campus fees, based on the student's residency (non-residents are charged at a higher rate).
Fully or entirely online course tuition rates and fees my vary depending on the program. Students enrolled in exclusively online courses do not pay non-Resident rates.
Together this means that GA residents pay about the same if they take all face-to-face or partially online courses as they do if they take only fully online courses exclusively; while non-residents save money by taking fully online courses.
One word of caution: If a student takes a combination of face-to-face and online courses in a single term, he/she will pay both all mandatory campus fees and the higher eTuition rate.
