eCore
What is eCore?
eCore is a statewide collaborative program which enables University System of Georgia (USG) students to earn most of their core credits by taking courses offered by various state institutions while remaining enrolled in one home college or university. eCore courses are designed, developed, taught and supported by faculty and staff from across the USG.
Overview
·¬ÇÑÖ±²¥app students can enroll in eCore classes to complete core coursework in a fully online environment. Whether you are a current ·¬ÇÑÖ±²¥app student completing your core requirements, a transient student from another institution, or you just need to pick up a core course, eCore gives you the flexibility of an online course with a guarantee of quality in both instruction and content.
