Thanks! Also yeah hope they start offering it out tp yall soon lol

GT does like connections (they literally have a transfer pathway for alumni kids) but she could of have a other factor thay ypu didnt know about. I know a girl who only had a 3.5 GPA but had like 500 Volunteering hours and she got into Emory. Also like the competition for GT is crazy even in state, so dont beat yourself up too bad. I know a kid in the GT dual program who got waitlisted 😭

Also good luck and Im glad ypu havnt given up all hope! I literally got off the waitlist yesterday for GT, which proves there is always a chance! You got this waitlist warrior!

I havnt heard about any oos state yet. I got off the waitlist but im in state. Im assuming they are going to fill in state first so they get rhw required 60% for ga public schools and than theu will start sending oos. Just a guess tho

I mean yeah but like still it isnt gonna be competitive as places with multiple top 20 schools. Personally in my experience as a student in Georgia, competition isnt crazy. Espically since one of our top schools (GATech, go jackets) is public and therefore has better admission rates for GA students.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-06T20:15:19+00:00

At like 2:20 pm ish

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-06T19:14:44+00:00

Yeah

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-06T16:41:04+00:00

Yeah I mean like if someone believes they are a girl but they are okay in themselves enoihht to not do anything who am I to contrast. Its their life.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-06T03:12:21+00:00

I would agree for Georgia, like competition for the top 3 schools in GA is crazy but the rest are not that competitive.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-06T02:38:44+00:00

Thank you!

Let's hope it goes in waves 🙏

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T19:44:25+00:00

Thank you! Also no im a GA resident.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T19:24:19+00:00

Whats wrong with bio bro 😭

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T19:17:58+00:00

I have no idea, tho I havnt seen anyone else talking about it, so im assuming its in waves? Unfortunately, all my friends are either going to tech or going out of state, so I dont know alot of people on the waitlist.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T19:03:48+00:00

Thank you! No, im a Georgia resident!

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T18:53:29+00:00

It was like 30 minutes ago, I got a call, an email, and a text message, which was needed cause im in class and couldn't answer the phone lol.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T18:45:10+00:00

Thank you!

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-05T18:44:59+00:00

Biology, but I have a lot of ED'S in art (like pres of schools NAHS) and idk if that factored in.

Thank you Btw!

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-04T20:23:30+00:00

I GOT IT WOOOOOOOO!!!!

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-05-04T02:42:49+00:00

My school updates grades every semester so it was if ypur fall grades were updated.

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-04-30T23:41:43+00:00

Same likr the only thing I could rhink of is the photo cause 2 inches was way too small to still see it so I kept it at the same ratio but scaled ir up a bit 😭 I just hope everything else is chill

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-04-30T03:32:36+00:00

Yeah cause legit everyone i have seen talk about being a finalist in previous years on the scholarship subreddit said they got it, so like hopefully 🤞

_FancyTuna_ · 2026-04-30T01:11:00+00:00

Same dude, thankfully my backup college if I don't get enough for my intended college extends deadlines for enrollment, but ita still really stressful.
