No, students don't need to submit either a GRE or GMAT score for most GSU courses. Business programs offered by the Robinson College of Business, have waived off the test score requirement for most courses.

However, students applying for studies at the Georgia State College of Law, may have to submit a valid GRE or LSAT score for courses like JD.

Students still can submit a valid score in either test. This can certainly have positive effect on the overall application.

The Trustroot Loan customer support phone number provided appears to be displayed in a jumbled manner, causing confusion about its authenticity and accuracy. Genuine lenders typically provide a clear and easy-to-read helpline number on their own website or through verified channels. If you want to get in touch with Trustroot loan support, it is best to visit their official website or reach out via verified email or physical branches. You should not call any phone numbers that seem suspiciously or incorrectly formatted, as they may not lead you to the proper location and may be a potential source of fraudulent activity.
