Visit Grady College

At Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication, we believe in nurturing the next generation of storytellers, journalists and communicators. We invite prospective students to come and visit our college to witness firsthand the community that’s been built around our college and envision the impact they can make in the world through an education at Grady.

Self-guided Tour

If you can’t take part in one of our scheduled tours, we have an easy-to-use, self-guided tour map available for download to help you navigate our building at your own pace. Printed copies are also available in the Dean’s Suite (Room 207).

Self-Guided Tour
Students walk and socialize outside a modern, multi-story campus building with large windows. A street sign reads “Baldwin,” and a traffic light is visible in the foreground, along with some trees and landscaping.

Prospective student day

Prospective Student Day is an opportunity for high school and transfer students and their guardians to learn more about Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. Current UGA students who are interested in applying for Grady College majors are also welcome.
