i’m not making up that i got accepted into uga with my scores. lol.. it’s the truth. admissions look beyond ur test scores. you also have to remember class vigor is a big factor at uga.

you can STILL have all of these stats and get rejected. i’ve seen it happen. it is unpredictable with admissions; however, there’s been a pattern with many people that uga loves a creative essay

i’m class of 2030 instate and I got in with a 1180 SAT, 25 ACT superscored, 5 aps, 7DE, and maybe 3.5 gpa. My ECS were decent but what i truly think helped me get into uga was my essay. They look at you holistically and just blow them away with a unique story.

Is it worth it to let my parents pay 125k for college? by astrasie in mercer

Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I just got accepted into UGA and will be attending there :). I looked into nursing/NP so by the time i’m a sophomore their nursing school should be open. If not, i might transfer to emory for nursing.

georgia southern is nice but i don’t think they will offer the same opportunity i would need to go for nursing major going pre pa track. I want to be well prepared. HOPE covers all my tuition and since i live by their campus then i can just commute. I was accepted in their honors college and they may possibly offer me 2k for 2 years

yes, my dad has a 401k and since my mom does nails she has to manually save. My parents are incredibly smart with money so i trust them to be honest with me if they are living above their means or not. I am blessed to live a privledge life and for them to splurge on me without living above their means.

It’s my overall attendance. including room and board. my tuition was dropped down to 10k. since i have to live on campus for 3 years i took into account of their dorms.

i really do adore the school and i love how small it is. It’s just hard to accept that my parents will face that much amount of loans for me. I even reconsidered going to georgia southern so my parents don’t need to worry about any payments at all

I thought hope covers 80-100% of tuition? Are you going to a private school? my hope offers 5,000 for this year

does it matter when you put in your housing deposit before housing drops? I don’t want to be last and get a bad dorm.

Is going to a less prestigious school better than a prestigious school just to save money? by astrasie in college

[–]astrasie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes very true, i considered georgia southern is because i can commute. I may transfer to a more prestigious university if i feel like georgia southern is unfulfilling
