Marviq Leekhi Richardson, 18, was charged with aggravated assault, carrying a weapon on school property and reckless conduct. He was being held without bond at the Chatham County jail Saturday.
Savannah State police say he shot another student, a male, about 8 p.m. Friday night in the area of University Village, a residence facility on campus.
No further details about the nature of the shooting were released Saturday.
Campus had been locked down immediately after the shooting, and police arrested Richardson within about two hours.
