<p>, .</p>
<p>does anyone know have the profile for the top two percent auto-accepted into the honors college? I’m sure they only look at SAT/ACT and GPA.</p>
<p>thanks in advance! I just want to know if i should even hope to consider myself part of the top two percent</p>
<p>They haven’t released that information yet, but they said that everyone accepted early this year had slightly higher stats than last year, so we can expect the top 2% to be very, very competitive. </p>
<p>This is just information in general about the Honor’s program’s stats last year. Whew…</p>

<p>I answered this with future applicants in mind (in the case that they wish to review past applicants).
Decision: Accepted</p>
<p>Objective: [ul]
[<em>] SAT I (breakdown): 1890: 600 math; 620 CR; 670 Writing. I took this on the last possible date for early action, so my scores from the SAT headquarters (you know what I mean…I think) were sent after the deadline, but were of course taken into account when received.

[<em>] SAT II (if submitted): –
[</em>] Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0): 3.7something
[<em>] Rank (percentile if rank is unavailable): –

[<em>] IB (place score in parenthesis): –
[</em>] Senior Year Course Load: British & Western Lit, Religion and Literature, Photography, AP Calc AB, Government, Economics, AP Bio, AP Psych

[/ul]
Reflection[ul]
[<em>] Strengths: eh…it’s relative. I suppose I volunteer a lot, and maintain fair grades. Be sure to use proper grammar in your application (or anytime at all… ;]).
[</em>] Weaknesses: Not a high SAT score…I recommend taking it more than once, especially if you aren’t a great test-taker. My grades are OK in comparison to many other applicants.
[*] Why you think you were accepted: I really am not sure as I have a few well-rounded friends who were deferred. One is very dedicated, has a higher GPA than I, and has taken at least four APs. I really don’t know what to say! She’s even African American, of whom there are a low percentage at UGA.[/ul]</p>
