Has anyone transferred into UGA? Why isn't it more common?

From like Athens Tech? I want to save as much money as possible, so I’ve been considering starting at a CC. The UGA transfer policies only require a certain amount of credits and a GPA. It seems so simple!!! But is it? Has anyone transferred in? Did they honor your Hope scholarship, if you were from GA?

Why ever do you think this isn’t common? My daughter, an upperclassmen who started at UGA, has mentioned meeting lots of students who transferred from somewhere else.

@weatherga I couldn’t find any threads about it on here!

@112935Liddell This isn’t a very active forum. I’m confident that considerable numbers of people do transfer to UGA from other state schools. You just have to comply with the requirements. I have no doubt that UGA honors HOPE for such students, according to the HOPE regulations.
