Applying to College
1

<p>Hello College Confidential!</p>

<p>Since I was very young I have aspired to get into the University of Georgia and study Japanese and broadcasting. As of late, I have been given a life time offer to stay with a family in Japan for a year! Of course, I still have to continue my freshman year of core education online. </p>

<p>I have been deferred by UGA and am applying for regular decision right now. If I do not get into UGA, I don't want to spend a year at home going to a community college (which doesn't hurt my pride) and not study Japanese when I could be in Japan and be forced to learn the language and do the job that I love. I wish to go to Japan and take online core courses so that I can transfer to UGA the following year. </p>

<p>I've found the UGA database in which you can see if your credits are transferable but i don;t even know where to start! What online programs could I take internationally that are still creditable to UGA? and if I was to come from Japan to Georgia would I be a transfer or international student?</p>

<p>If you are an american citizen now you will still be one in a year. You would be a transfer. As far as class credits, you should probably ask UGA what online schools they accept in lieu of their own courses. At the least they might be able to provide a list of those schools you should not use.</p>

<p>Erin’s dad is generous with advice. In the future, please don’t title your posts with the generic “help me”.</p>

<p>By SAYING something relevant such as “Studying in Japan” or “UGA deferree” you might actually get more people knowledgeable about your situation. savvy?</p>
