What do you all think?
Anyone? Comment your opinions. Especially accepted ppl
My son is currently a freshman at UGA. To give you a sense of comparison, he had a high school gpa of 4.3 and a 34 ACT (superscore). All of his classes were honors, except for 1 AP junior year and 2 senior year. He played varsity lax, National homie society, deca, model U.N., and maybe a few other clubs/organizations. He did not have a leadership role in any of them. We are also out of state. From what we were told, they do put a lot of emphasis on course rigor (I think yours is very impressive). For early admits I was told that they do not look much at extracurriculars. Your gpa seems to be right on target with their qualifications. I think the only thing that may hurt you is your ACT score. If you can get that up, I think you have a great chance! I personally hate that one stupid test has so much influence on determining ones acceptance to college, I wish you the best of luck and hope you get that congratulations from Dawg nation! FYI, last year my son received his acceptance right before thanksgiving, so you should know in less then a month ??
You may get deferred, but I predict you will get in.
@epicturtlz Try to get your ACT up as much as you can in the english and math sections, as those two sections are the only ones they consider for admissions. Best of luck!
Agree with Georgia1234. I’ve been told by multiple admissions staff that they only consider the English and Math subscores on the ACT.
I think you will get in, but I’m also awaiting notification. 2 more weeks!
We have the same stats and I applied EA as well hoping we both get in!
