The school is divided into six different academic divisions, which are: Aviation Management and Business; Aviation Technology; Health Sciences; Humanities; Natural Sciences, Mathematics, Engineering and G.A.M.E.S.; and Social Sciences and Education.
Although Middle Georgia College has historically been a two-year college, it is undergoing a transition to incorporate more four-year degrees; a Bachelor of Science in Aviation Management (specializing in either Flight, Air Traffic Control, Airport Management, or Logistics) is already available, and there are plans to imminently incorporate a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood/Special Education.
The school’s ample offering of associate degrees and certificates are predominantly focused in the areas of nursing, flight, air traffic control, occupational therapy assistant, aviation management technology, aircraft structural technology, and surveying, with broad employment opportunities upon completion of such programs. The school offers in-class, online, nighttime, weekend and part-time study plans to help students achieve their academic goals.
Middle Georgia College has a mildly selective admissions process, meaning that not all applicants will be accepted. The school considers a variety of different kinds of applicants, dividing them in the following ways:
Freshman and Freshman Transfer students are expected to present their transcripts and furthermore should have obtained a 2.0 GPA or more (in the case of College-Prep diploma recipients) or a 2.2 GPA (in the case of Tech-Prep/Vocational diploma recipients). For freshman transfers, a student must currently be in good academic standing with the previous institution.
Non-traditional applying students are considered to be people having graduated high school more than five years ago with less than 30 transferable college semester hours accrued. All that needs to be supplied here is the high school diploma or GED and applicable transcripts.
Other transfer students that have accrued more than 30 college semester hours must have a 2.0 GPA or more and currently be in good academic standing, and present transcripts from all institutions attended.
Home schooled and international students are subject to specific admissions requirements that aim to guarantee English and reading and math proficiency of a minimally acceptable level to be able to keep up with Middle Georgia College coursework. In these cases, good scores on the SAT or ACT exams may exempt such applicants from certain special requirements.
