UGA is currently ranked among the top 20 public universities in U.S. News & World Report. The University's main campus is located in Athens, approximately 65 miles northeast of Atlanta, with extended campuses in Atlanta, Griffin, Gwinnett, and Tifton.

The University's enrollment exceeds 40,000 students including over 30,000 undergraduates and over 10,000 graduate and professional students. Academic programs reside in 18 schools and colleges, as well as a medical partnership with Augusta University housed on the UGA Health Sciences Campus in Athens.
The University of Georgia College of Pharmacy offers pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences degree programs that are among the best in Georgia, the southeast, and the nation. UGA's College of Pharmacy provides a superior curriculum taught by nationally-recognized faculty members in an experiential, research-based environment. Simply put, this is the right place to prepare for a career in pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences. What sets us apart, however, is the family atmosphere that has become a part of our culture. Our students, faculty, staff, and alumni share a unique bond because of the inclusiveness, character and personality of the college.
Athens is ideally situated in the rolling hills of northeast Georgia, yet is less than one hour from metropolitan Atlanta, and within easy access to the scenic Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee mountains.
