Soar Beyond

At Georgia Southern University, you’ll reach new heights. You’ll exceed expectations and surpass limitations. You’ll break through barriers on your way to bigger and better things.

But it won’t just happen. You’ll earn it.

Success takes drive. It takes getting after it, every day. It takes the vision and wisdom to know when to change course. It takes the right people at the right time—mentors and coaches, good collaborators and better friends who lift you up and then challenge you to go farther. At Georgia Southern, we’ll give you everything it takes to take off.

So you can soar beyond expectations. Beyond limitations. Beyond the gatekeepers and the naysayers.

And from there? Anything. Maybe you’ll take over the C-suite and build lasting financial success. Or support a family and care for the ones you love. Maybe you’ll devote a decades-long career to students and win School Social Worker of the Year. Maybe you’ll build a STEM education program from the ground up to make the sciences more accessible. Maybe you’ll become Special Agent In Charge of the FBI in Chicago.

Whatever your path, any moment here can be the moment that raises you to new heights.

So run the risky play. Make the surprise pass. Leap out of your comfort zone and into possibilities. Dream big. Make moves. Break through. Soar—and don’t stop there.

Soar Beyond.
