    An applicant who is 62 years of age or older may be considered as a Prime Timer student. Prime Timers may take up to 12 semester hours of credit courses (on a space available basis) prior to meeting general admission requirements. Courses may be restricted due to placement or prerequisite requirements.  Tuition fees are waived. Only supply fees, lab fees, and special course fees will be applicable.

    Prime Timer applicants need to submit the following documents:

    • Proof of Georgia Residency
      • Applicants must have been a resident of Georgia for one year.
      • Applicants need to submit a Georgia driver’s license or state issued identification card.
    After completion of 12 semester hours, students may continue to receive a waiver of tuition fees but must meet all additional admission requirements including:
    • Official High School Transcript
      • The transcript needs to indicate type of diploma received (college preparatory or technical/career) and date of graduation . Certificates of performance or special education diplomas are not acceptable.
      • Applicants who received a General Education Development (GED) diploma need to submit official GED scores.
    • Official College Transcript(s)
      • Transcripts from each college, university, or technical school attended.
      • Applicants must be eligible to return to the institution they last attended.
      • Applicants who previously attended a college or university and have less than 30 semester hours of transferable college credit will need to submit high school transcripts or GED scores.
    Applicants in this category who do not have either English or math college transfer credit will be required to take placement exams (COMPASS) in that area after they have reached 12 semester hours.
