When do the results come out?

I heard Nov 18 from my high school counselor who got an email from UGA, as well as from a friend who toured the school and asked an admissions counselor. It was the Friday before Thanksgiving Break last year also. However, Dr. Graves (the head of admissions) says that there is no set date yet, so don’t take my word for it.

November 18 makes sense! Don’t bank on it since they haven’t told us yet, but it was the Friday before Thanksgiving last year! Good luck to all!

Dr. @amissions just tweeted that first wave will be this Friday mid-day

By the way, last years Early Action stats are here (copy and pasted from Dr. Graves’ Blog): Statistics - Some rough mid-50% statistics on accepted and deferred Early Action applicants:
Admitted - 4.00-4.22 UGA GPA, 29-33 ACT, 1320-1490 best SAT, 6-10 AP/IB/DE courses.

Deferred - 3.61-3.91 UGA GPA, 26-30 ACT, 1170-1330 best SAT, 4-7 AP/IB/DE courses.

Hi! I’m an out-of-state applicant from Florida who applied to UGA EA and was invited to visit the campus for UGA First Look (at least the email said they only invited competitive applicants haha. I did notice that you could not generally register for the event on the website).
Here are my stats:
GPA: 3.96/4.66
SAT (new): 1420 (1440 SS, but I did not send in my updated scores)
APs: World History (5), APUSH (5), Lang (5), APES (4), US Gov, Macro, Psych, Lit, Cal AB
ECs/leadership: yearbook editor-in-chief, NHS president, environmental club co-founder and VP, teen community service non-profit council member, 165+ community service hours
Of course there are more details and activities, but that about sums it up. Good luck to everyone and I can’t wait for decisions to come out on Friday!!

Good luck everyone!

Did you see the decision envelopes posted on Instagram? I bet there will be lots of excitement on this thread tomorrow evening.
