In-Depth How To Get Into UGA 2021 

Hey, I just got in early action! Not sure if it’s where I’ll commit to yet but I just wanted to say thank you for the helpful tips because you definitely played a role in how I filled out my app. Thanks!

period girl! see you in the fall ♡

Hey girl I loved this video! I got accepted to uga last year and decided to go to bama instead but I missed Georgia so much so I’m transferring to uga this fall.

Thanks for the vid. I’m applying to start Spring 2023 as a transfer.

Much needed 💕💕

I love it!!!

Hi! Thanks for all the information really helps. I got few questions, You haven’t taken any AP classes or dual enrollment does that low your chances of being accepted. Is the essay and application on two different website/link?

This was very helpful, love it! I want to go next Fall! Basically I graduate 2022 lol😂 Do you think my DE hours will be a big help of getting in?

you are so well spoken wow

Hi! I'll be a senior next year and am super nervous about college applications. I have my mind set on UGA but I'm worried that I waited too late to get my GPA up to a 4.0 or to have any of my numbers stand out since I have heard that UGA focuses mainly on test scores (for reference, I have a 3.78 GPA, which isn't horrible but not ideal). I am still continuously taking the SAT and ACT to try to get it up to its highest but I'm not that good of a test taker nor good at basic math, despite the fact that math has been my best subject all throughout high school. This year I really stepped it up academically and I plan to take three AP classes senior year to have a total of 8 and I'll have one year and one semester of dual enrollment. I am involved in school clubs and have a pretty decent amount of community service and some extra things I have done that may pop out and I plan to continue to serve as much as I can this summer. But now we've come to my problem: I have only recently (this year and next) decided to take my academics super seriously and, as I said above, I am almost sure that I've run out of time to make any drastic changes. While my freshman year grades were actually really good, sophomore year got me with chemistry (a C) and two B's. I had all A’s and one B last semester and am hoping to finish this semester with all A's. I just cant stop stressing about it since I really want UGA to be endgame. What I'm really trying to ask is: Based on what I have said, do you have any advice at all on what I can do to better my chances so late in the game? Sorry about the rant, and I really appreciate your video!!

Hi this was a really great video! I want to apply to uga but over the years uga has become really competitive and I’m scared I wont be able to get in. I have a 3.9 gpa and I dont have impressive extracurriculars. I had a job at a cookie store, helped out at the church, volunteered as a Korean school assistant, tutored someone english, but did not have a major role in school clubs because of covid and the multiple moves. My sat score currently is a 1270 and im planning to take it again while aiming for a 1350+. Im hoping I can get in, but Im really doubting myself these days.

Hi Lia! I want to apply to Georgia but my test scores are not in the middle 50% range that Georgia admissions display. With test scores being mandatory for fall 2022 applicants I will have to apply these. If the rest of my application is strong do you think it is possible to gain acceptance into Georgia? Thank you, and your video was very helpful!

just check out uga's "common data set" and scroll down the pdf and look for basis for selection. that's the most objective info you can find

Hey girl I’m currently a Junior and really wish to get in when I apply in October! I’m worried since everyone has told me my stats aren’t impressive enough, I have taken 8 Aps and I’m supposed to graduate with 13, but unfortunately I got a C in three of those classes which hurt my GPA so I only have a 3.5 unweighted but 4.0 weighed. (Im still top 10% of my school) I have many roles in the school such as vice president for a well known organization, jr Representative, president of my own club, executive manager for a non profit tutoring program, a member of BETA, NHS, etc, and currently work two jobs as a sales woman and at a receptionist at a Vet. I will intern this summer at a hospital and will intern my senior year for a clinic, not only that I will graduate with over 250+ hrs of community service. I have yet to take my SATs but I plan on taking them in May. I’m in a medical program and wish to get in for the premed pathway, idk im just really worried and plan on increasing my GPA as much as possible this year. Should I apply early or regular? Im just worried.

Hey girl I'm looking to apply to uga too! But I'm discouraged because I only have a 3.1 cumulative gpa, but my gpa junior year was a 3.7. My SAT score was very poor due to the fact I'm a bad test taker. However I do teach a class and also very involved with the school and community

Hi! Great video! I want to apply regular decision this year. I have a 4.0 weighted and a 3.8 unweighted gpa. My school schedule goes by semesters, so by the end of this semester ( around christmas break) I will have taken 3 AP classes and 12 honors classes. I also scored a 5 on the AP german exam but never took the class. I was born in germany and lived there until 8th grade before i moved to atlanta. I was awarded the seal of biliteracy which required me to take the ap german test and pass it with a 4 or 5. I am worried about my course load since i only really will have taken 3 aps by the time i submit my application. Also, none of those ap tests will actually be on my application since they will obviously be in may. Would that hurt my chances? For my sat/act, i took the sat in may and scored a 1240, and am taking it again and hope to score a 1350+. I will also be taking the act on october 23. For my ecs, i am a member of french honor society, awarded seal of biliteracy, am a member in 3 school clubs, varsity track and field, i own two businesses - a photography and pressure washing business. I work a part time job, coded a calculator app. For my essay, I would like to talk about the “struggles” of being biracial and finding your perfect fit, and how i believe i was able to find a middle ground. Would that be a good idea in your opinion? I know this was a lot but I would appreciate if you would give your two cents about my chances. Thank you!!!

what are some key things to make a strong essay? i am SUPER involved with extracurriculares and have great leadership positions so i am strong in those areas and i have a 4.1 cumulative GPA (5 AP's from soph-junior) and i will take a total of 8 AP's by the end of my senior year. I've been having a really difficult time trying to raise my SAT score which is a 1120 and i'm scheduled to take the SAT oct. 2...i want to apply early action but do you think there could be any possibility of me getting accepted? i'm really nervous about my score and if i will score higher in the oct SAT

Thank you soooo much. If I got around a 1300 on the SAT should I submit that to Georgia?

i got deferred early action, i resubmitted my SAT scores and did the optional supplement. Should I also submit my mid-year report (for senior year i have mostly B’s and a couple A’s unweighted), its just im unsure if this would be a downfall as my junior year grades were better with all A’s and only 1 B.

Hello I was wondering if there were any requirements for AP classes or are they required I have taken any yet but if it is needed what classes would I need it for? Thank you!

so i really want to get into UGA, but they have an acceptance rate of 50% and they want you to score really higher on your ACT and your SAT. i’m going to end my honors pre calc class with a D and ik that’s not going to look to hot on a transcript. i have all A’s on the rest of my transcript. i also have a 4.31 unweighted and a 3.98 weighted. i’ve done varsity sports (swim and soccer) since freshman year and i am also in NHS. i have my final tomorrow and i’m 8th in my class. i’m going to superscore my ACT and when i took the PSAT i got a 1100 and UGA wants you to get a 1250 or higher. i’m just super stressed about it rn. in my field though i don’t need that high of a math, but i’m just trying to figure everything out.

Hi! I’m applying to UGA this year. My college counselor told me that it’s a reach because of my gpa however i took 6 Aps and was involved in the school. What do u think i can do to be a better applicant? I’m just so scared!

Hey, I know this video is like a year old but I was wondering if you could give me advice. Right now as a sophomore in high school I will have a 3.6 at the end of the year. Junior year I will be taking 3 ap and rest honors and senior probably 2 or 3 ap and Rest honors. What gpa will I have to maintain to have a chance to get into uga. My brother goes their and I want to go there too. I guess I’m just super stressed because everyone I. The area has around the same gpa and test scores? Thanks!

I have a 3.5 GPA, but a lot of good extracurriculars. I'm gonna take the SAT to improve my application, but will a 3.5 GPA be enough? I'm a Junior rn

Having a 3.26 gpa (UGA calculation and high school weighted, they were exactly the same) and mediocre extracurriculars, with 5 aps, my odds of getting are not great, my only real advantage is a 1460 SAT (Still not incredible by UGA standards) and an above average essay, about my brother having special needs and me learning patience. I applied EA and both Niche and Prep Scholar say I have a 25-30% of getting in but UGAs website seems to disagree, what do you think of my odds?

Pls does University of Georgia accept ministry decree now am just waiting for the embassy approved to get into the university

Could I do filming after school as like an participation cause it was never a club it was a class but we did get extra credit

I wonder how I got in lol. I submitted 2 AP classes and 1 DE class; 1320 on SAT; few extracurriculars; and that's it

What's the link for the application process for 2022/2023

Valuable info for me to use in 7 years 😂

What was your essay about?

First viewer😆

But I just watched a video made by a girl who I thought was 100% white but, apparently not she's mixed, ok. The video was her explaining that she had to dropout of UGA because of racism and the experience was apparently to "white" for her, I assume she meant the culture, idk! So beware students of color, you may be unwelcome at UGA!
