| About this School |
| Located in Augusta, Georgia, the Medical College of Georgia is the smallest of four research schools in the University System of Georgia (USG).
In 1828, it was chartered by the state of Georgia as the Medical Academy of Georgia, with plans to offer a single course of lectures leading to a bachelor's degree. It opened the following year on October 1st at the Augusta hospital. In December 1829 the school's name was changed to the Medical Institute of Georgia by the Georgia General Assembly, and again to its current name in December 1833, just a few months after the first graduation.
