About ABAC

Since 1908, Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College has provided
unique, hands-on learning opportunities for students as the
South’s premier destination for Agricultural studies. Our offerings
have grown a great deal since our founding, now including a wide
range of more traditional 4-year degrees and paths to success
including a highly sought after nursing program, innovative arts
and science tracks, and an ever-growing list of learning
opportunities and majors for our students. A member of the 26-
member University System of Georgia, ABAC is proud to support
enrollment of over 3700 students from 151 of Georgia’s 159
counties, 14 states, and 21 countries.

Our home is in Tifton, Georgia, a tight-knit and thriving town nestled
among the lush pines of South Georgia. ABAC takes pride in our
community involvement and the breadth of opportunities our city
provides to get involved in hands-on learning from healthcare to
business experience. Our college is a genuine member of the
community at large.

The ABAC campus offers apartment-style housing for 1,400
students and a wealth of resources and opportunities for students
to get involved, learn, and grow in our academic community.

Chances to practically apply what is learned in the classroom in
the real world begin on day one. ABAC’s sprawling campus is
equipped with a multitude of resources such as the J.G. Woodroof
Farm, Forest Lakes Golf Course, and the Georgia Museum of
Agriculture and Historic Village. We also offer chances to get
involved outside of Tifton at our instructional site in Bainbridge.
