'Best College' ranking among public universities in the South
September 18, 2011
DAHLONEGA, Ga. – North Georgia College and State University is ranked 18th among the South's public regional universities in the 2012 edition of Best Colleges by U.S. News Media Group.
Additionally, North Georgia was the second-ranked regional university in the South for the least amount of debt load for the class of 2010.
"This highlights the incredible educational value that North Georgia provides its students and the region," said President Bonita C. Jacobs. "Our comparatively low tuition, our low student/faculty ratio and our academic rigor combine to create an exceptional academic environment and experience."
In addition to its 120-acre campus in Dahlonega, the university offers courses online, through the University Center at Gainesville State College and at various sites in Forsyth County.
North Georgia is currently collaborating with Gainesville State College to open a new University Center in Cumming in fall 2012.
