USG Students

Students from across the University System of Georgia register for eCore classes through their institutional Banner/registration system. Since eCore is a cooperative academic arrangement between 21 institutions your classmates will not only be from your institution but also from any participating USG institution.

USG Instructors

Courses in this collaborative are only taught by highly qualified instructors who are employed at SACSCOC-accredited colleges and universities within the University System of Georgia.

Registration and Transferability

Course credits earned by completing eCore courses are awarded by the student’s home institution and are transferable within the USG as well as other regionally accredited institutions.

Flexibility

eCore courses are taught fully online in both 16-week and 8-week formats. All eCore courses include free and open digital textbooks and resources embedded inside the courses at no cost to the student.
