Hey, I got deferred from UGA EA and want people to tell me my chances for getting in RD!
Gender- Girl
W GPA- 4.2308
UW GPA-3.2308
UGA GPA- 3.43
SAT- 1450
8 APs
12 Honors
tons of varsity sports, activities, extra circulars, etc… I had really good essays too
My lower GPA was due to circumstances that prevented from attending school full time and that was included within my personal statement to UGA, other than that I am years ahead in classes of those in my grade and my grades have improved since I have gotten help for my issues.
I hope you’ll be fine, your GPA is definitley a low point simply because UGA values GPA so much. I hope you get in! You also have really high SATs. Can you chance me too?
@aye123 thanks! I was not in school full time due to medical issues so that is why my GPA is slightly lower, but I included that in my personal statement. I hope my scores and rigor offset the GPA. Have you ever heard of a deferred student being denied RD?

I think it was due to my GPA… It’s kind of low due to some issues but I am two years ahead in math though but as far as being deferred, my friends who were admitted told me that they may have higher GPA’s than me but they know I’m smarter than them so I hope UGA sees that haha! And sure! @sjgvsdv
SAT score is a plus, essays will have to make up for GPA since it’s a bit under average. But, I say you have a good chance, a lot of colleges are getting more competitive now.
Ur UGA gpa is a bit low but ur SAT’s are great. Hopefully that will balance everything out. Also, ur EC’s are really good as well. So, I think you have a pretty decent shot. Would you mind chancing me?
