FAFSA earnings check

: Not flagged

Georgia Gwinnett College does not trigger the FAFSA's "lower earnings" notice. Its graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $59,976, above the $32,616 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Georgia.

This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release.

Academics

Studying online: a substantial share study entirely online

In Fall 2023, 1,678 of Georgia Gwinnett College's 11,907 students (14%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 5,742 (48%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.

Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

What is the acceptance rate at Georgia Gwinnett College?
The most recently reported acceptance rate at Georgia Gwinnett College is approximately 95% (IPEDS, applicants for fall 2024). Acceptance rate signals selectivity but does not predict any individual applicant's outcome and is not a measure of school quality.

What is the tuition at Georgia Gwinnett College?
Georgia Gwinnett College's published in-state tuition is approximately $4,532 per year (IPEDS, charges for academic year 2024-25).

How many students attend Georgia Gwinnett College?
Georgia Gwinnett College reports total enrollment of approximately 12,230 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.
How much does Georgia Gwinnett College actually cost after financial aid?
The average net price at Georgia Gwinnett College is approximately $15,844 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $14,356 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $20,986. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.
What is the graduation rate at Georgia Gwinnett College?
Georgia Gwinnett College reports a graduation rate of approximately 21% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.
How much student debt do graduates of Georgia Gwinnett College have?
Students who borrowed at Georgia Gwinnett College left with a median of approximately $20,076 in federal loans, and about 25% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
How much do graduates of Georgia Gwinnett College earn?
Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $47,730 for students who received federal financial aid at Georgia Gwinnett College. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.
How should I verify final details about Georgia Gwinnett College?
CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with Georgia Gwinnett College.
How much do Business graduates from Georgia Gwinnett College earn?
Georgia Gwinnett College's bachelor's graduates in Business earned a median $58,367 four years after graduating, 15% below the $68,407 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $39,700; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $20,000 in federal loans at this college (about $212 a month on a 10-year plan), and had $21,750 in total federal debt including other colleges attended (same degree level).
How much do Teacher Education (by grade level) graduates from Georgia Gwinnett College earn?
Georgia Gwinnett College's bachelor's graduates in Teacher Education (by grade level) earned a median $51,472 four years after graduating, 9% above the $47,382 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $48,203; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $18,369 in federal loans at this college (about $195 a month on a 10-year plan), and had $21,590 in total federal debt including other colleges attended (same degree level).
Which programs at Georgia Gwinnett College have the highest graduate earnings?
Among the 3 programs at Georgia Gwinnett College with a federal earnings figure from at least 30 graduates, the highest medians four years after graduating were Nursing (RN), bachelor's ($90,106); Business, bachelor's ($58,367); and Teacher Education (by grade level), bachelor's ($51,472) (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). That order is one federal measure, not a ranking of program quality: earnings reflect the field and where graduates go to work as well as the program.
Does Georgia Gwinnett College get a "lower earnings" warning on the FAFSA?
No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, Georgia Gwinnett College's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $59,976, above the $32,616 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Georgia, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice. The figure describes the whole institution, not any one program.
