University Description
Through more than 100 years, Georgia Southern, a Carnegie
Doctoral-Research University, has stayed true to one purpose: to advance the educational and economic aspirations of Georgians. Today, it is one of the state’s premier universities with nearly 20,000 students, and during the 2009-2010 fiscal year, the University had a total economic impact of $795.3 million on nine counties in southeast Georgia. A member of the University System of Georgia, it is also one of the top choices in the state
for new freshmen and HOPE scholars, and was named the
fourth most popular university in the country by U.S. News and World Report.

Located just an hour from historic Savannah, Hilton Head
Island and the Atlantic coast, Georgia Southern’s nearly
700-acre campus is nestled in the classic Main Street
community of Statesboro. The city’s host county of Bulloch
continues to grow along with the University and is home to
more than 69,000 residents.

Georgia Southern’s traditional residential campus includes
three original 100-year-old red brick and white columned
buildings anchoring a “historic district” that transitions into contemporary academic and residential buildings - many of which were completed or begun during the past decade’s nearly $300 million in construction and renovation projects.
