<p>Well? What was the decision?</p>
<p>UGAGirl,</p>
<p>This thread got pretty ugly and I’m sure you will not be posting again but I would like to offer you some advice as to communication. When you were explaining your relatively low GPA, all you had to do was explain that your school had a much harder grading scale than other schools. Having to make a 93 to get an A opposed to other schools where an A is a 90 is harder. Believe me, my final grade in several classes was a 90-92, so if I went to a school with that grading scale, my GPA would be lower. However, making blanket statements like “my private school is harder than public school” will definitely upset people, and quite frankly, is not true. Your catholic school may have been more challenging than the one public school you attended (in your opinion, based upon the classes YOU took), but you cannot say that is it more than ALL public schools and that is why you encountered so much animosity on this thread. In addition, your comment that all minorities get accepted simply because they are minorities would be considered racist and that by itself has greatly angered people. So your simple request to be chanced ended up alienating and insulting almost everyone on this thread. </p>
<p>I have no idea if you were accepted, deferred or denied admission at University of Georgia but I sincerly hope you learned a lesson on how to better communicate.</p>
<p>Thank you KFBecker, I did not realize how mean I was being in my communication to others mean posts. I got defensive when people were basically telling me I am a horrible student because I am not. I have really good grades all A’s and B’s and because of my schools rigor my GPA seems lower. I got denied and I am not ashamed of it. UGA released a statement after things went out and somewhere it said the average number of AP classes was 6.5 even at a public school I would never have that many AP’s. UGA was not the place for me and I realize that now. I have 7 classes so that means about all of my classes would be AP’s and that is frankly impossible at my school. Thanks for everyone’s feedback! If you would like to chance me for University of South Carolina, Georgia Southern, and Miami University (in Oxford, Ohio). I would love to get feed back. I will be making another thread for those schools. Sorry this got out of hand.</p>
<p>UGAgirl - That was a very nice reply. Best of luck to you in your future college applications.</p>
<p>Good luck! As I said, we loved university of SC and I heard that Miami in Ohio is a fantastic school. Georgia southern is a beautiful campus as well.</p>
<p>Yeah but good luck hetting in with your 24 ACT. Miami is considered one of the best schools in Ohio. You might want to raise it like 3 or 4 or 5 points</p>
<p>Why are you so rude? You can say things in a nicer way. And I live in Ohio I know how great of a school Miami is. It’s not my top so I would rather not pay more money to take the ACT again and not do any better when I have a good chance at getting into Georgia Southern or Valdosta State which are my top 2 schools right now. This is the last time I will check this thread since I have another one chancing me at other schools. I just wanted to know what I did to you to deserve rude comments? You don’t even know me.</p>
<p>UGAgirl,
I know you’re not going to check this thread again, but I’d just like to apologize. I was so rude in my response to you and I really regret saying those things. I was under the false illusion that I could say critical things like that because I wasn’t talking to your face, but obviously I was wrong. I’m very sorry for what I said.
I think you have a great chance at getting into Southern and Valdosta State. I’m not just saying that to be nice- you are qualified. I know a bunch of people at Southern who absolutly love it, so that would be a great choice. I’m also pretty confident you can get into USC too. I know people with similar and worse stats than you that got in from out of state.
Good luck! You’ll be happy wherever you end up. Georgia’s not all that great so don’t worry 
Once again, sorry for what I said. I hope you see this!</p>

^does my cultural diversity play a role in admissions, because I’ve seen literature from UGA about their emphasis on diversity</p>
<p>I was deferred Early Action and I’ve concluded that I NEED to get into UGA! Any advice on something I could do to increase this besides my grades from senior yr first semester!?</p>
<p>Until you master the application of fractions you have no chance anywhere</p>
<p>I wish I could be 9/8 of an ethnicity…</p>
<p>Well you guys have been a great help.
Have fun in a cubicle, ignorant dumbass. You know what I mean when I say that.</p>
<p>Actually we dont know what you mean. I’m not even sure you do.</p>
<p>And what’s this cubicle you speak of? I’m just as old as you are, except I already received my letter from UGA Honors last month</p>
<p>Wow. Your chances probably just dropped when UGA Admissions reads the insightful comment you just made. Wouldn’t be too hard to isolate you based on how you described yourself. Good luck.</p>
<p>No reason to get offended. I’m a sophomore and I take several AP, Honor, and Gifted classes. I have not been to UGA seeing to that I am only a sophomore, but I have read the stats. And these people are all tryng to help you. You asked and they told you. Right now your grades and GPA just do not average up to realistic UGA EA standards. Don’t give up though, I recommend that you keep retesting and bring up your GPA.</p>
<p>AWESOME. That is really cool, and I don’t think she does.</p>
