*As of November 7, 2005, Georgia Highlands underwent a social security number conversion. This means that we will no longer use SSN for identification purposes. Your new GHC ID number is printed on the front of your card next to the barcode. If you don’t have a card with the new GHC logo on it and still have the old Floyd College card, you will need to come to the Charger Card Office located on the Rome campus and have it replaced at no charge to you.
