My Admissions Story

Applying to College Admission Stories
1

On March 14th I took the SAT. On March 17th I completed my GED after two months of 24/7 prep.
1110 SAT. Honors GED Social Studies
I applied to two universities.
ABAC (had no doubt I’d get in)
Georgia Southern (couldn’t live with the what if)

I got in to ABAC and I was overwhelmed. So happy. I was going to complete my core classes and transfer to Southern that was the plan.

On April 10th I was denied admission to Southern. No problem. I was focused. I knew my plan. I accepted the reality.

5 days later GSU retracted their decision. I learned of my acceptance and I have never been more thankful in my life.

If you have a GED don’t think that’s the end of the line.

Congratulations! :slight_smile: Good luck at GSU.
Keep in mind that the very low graduation rate comes from so many freshmen being lured into the various drinking spots - you’ll find them quickly. Make sure to adjust your choices in consequence - partying on weekends is fine, but never S-Thursday. The students at GSU who follow that simple rule typically do well. :slight_smile:
Comeback to post once classes have started :slight_smile: you story will bring hope to many others and a follow up will sure be nice. Congratulations again :slight_smile:
