Other  Information

Georgia Military College has adopted the Principles of Excellence included in Executive Order 13607 (EO 13607). Following the Principles of Excellence, Georgia Military will provide to students who self-identify as U.S. Veterans or dependent of a Veteran on the College Financing Plan (formally known as the Financial Aid Shopping Sheet).  Developed by the Department of Education, the College Financing Plan provides simplified information about education costs, financial aid, cost of attendance, and consumer information.

• Click Here to view an example “College Financing Plan” which is a model Financial Aid Offer designed to simplify the information that prospective students receive about costs and financial aid so they can easily compare institutions and make informed decisions about where to attend school. The College Financing Plan is available in the Financial Aid Self-Service Portal, for all GMC students.*

*While the College Financing Plan is based on annual figures, students may estimate the cost of their program by multiplying figures by the number of years in the enrolled program. Due to several factors and unforeseeable variables, costs and aid eligibility may be higher or lower and program calculations should only be treated as an estimate.
