Georgia State University — Perimeter College, Newton Campus

The Newton Campus is in Covington, about 40 miles east of Atlanta’s downtown area, on a 100-acre site. It serves students from the eastern and southeastern metro region, so it is a regional option rather than a city-center campus. Georgia State describes it as a modern facility with a close student community, local-industry partnerships and community involvement. Student Services is on the first floor of its Student Services Building.

Newton students can pursue Perimeter’s associate pathways, including transfer preparation and general education, while the college connects learning with area employers and community groups. The campus calendar features the Daffodil Festival, a local tradition tied to the historic gardens around Covington. The pathway and course schedule should be checked before assuming a desired major is available at this location every term.

The official contact page lists Lot 1 for campus admissions parking and gives the phone as 770-278-1200. The address is 239 Cedar Lane, Covington, GA 30014. Applicants from Atlanta should account for the distance and confirm whether a mix of online and campus courses would reduce travel; Perimeter permits online-only or blended study for eligible students, depending on the program.
