Athens Campus

BSN and ABSN students have the option to attend our Athens campus, just a short drive away from The University of Georgia. Many pre-nursing students at UGA select Augusta University's Athens Campus, as it allows them to continue to engage in their Greek Life and the pre-nursing society. Our BSN students on the Athens campus get the best of both worlds. While they take classes at Augusta University in our state-of-the art facilities from our outstanding faculty, they also enjoy a variety of perks through our partnership with UGA.
