The University System of Georgia's Board of Regents authorize a

A Jumpstart on College
High school students earning college credit, tuition free, before
they graduate? It may sound too good to me true, but hundreds of
Central Georgia high school students have gotten a jumpstart on
college through Macon State's Postsecondary Options program.
Postsecondary Options a Family
Affair for the Redds
Perfect Match
Mike Hale, former chief information officer for Georgia & Florida,
brings his business & technology expertise to Macon State as

Partnering with Robins Air
Force Base
In Macon State's most important economic development partnership
to date, the College and Robins Air Force Base are launching a state-sponsored
project to produce more software specialists for one of the nation's
key defense logistics centers.

One of the University System's strategies for creating a more educated
Georgia is to encourage potential students over then age of 25 to
begin or finish college. Macon State makes special efforts to reach
this adult market in Central Georgia.
