62 or Older in Georgia? Earn Your UGA Degree For Free!

Monica Kaufman Pearson graduated from the University of Georgia today with a masters degree from Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. Even though she is a very accomplished journalist with many years of experience at WSB-TV in Atlanta, she still found it important to continue her education. Any resident of Georgia over the age of 62 can earn a UGA degree for free, just like Monica Kaufman Pearson, thanks to a program from the University System of Georgia (USG).  The USG tuition assistance program for students in GA over the age of 62 includes online classes at the University of Georgia. Those who qualify are encouraged to apply for an undergrad or graduate degree at UGA online or on campus.
