@nanosec for reference, D20 was offered $9,500ish for OOS last year (4.0/4.55/35ACT/I don’t remember her UGA GPA). She was admitted to the honors college, but unfortunately they came in at the highest price of all of her OOS schools. Hopefully, they’ll bump it up this year. Good luck!
My DD is an OOS senior. The scholarships look less generous than when she applied. I still think, however, that any OOS waiver is great as UGA COA is quite low.
You can look through their scholarships on the website here:
I have a OOS son at UGA, and he was given a generous scholarship. For OOS, it’s possible to get a waiver and pay in state tuition or some get a waiver of half the difference. I think those are most common.
My son was accepted, OOS. It sounds like many of the EA will still be admitted, what a very competitive applicant pool. We are Texans, so OOS tuition won’t be our first choice. We plan to notify the school to give up his spot when/if his first choice schools release. Good luck to everyone.
His Stats: GPA 4.43, 12 AP’s counting this year, Competitive HS, rank top 7%, lots of community service and volunteer hours at his school. ACT 33, 34 superstore. Started his own small business. A few business internships.
Congratulations to your son, he has a great resume. Thank you for thinking of others by giving up his spot if he gets his first choice somewhere else. Good luck!
Any thoughts on what time of day Honors admits come out tomorrow? My son is hoping not to have to write another essay
I believe the blog says something like “late afternoon… and don’t ask when late afternoon is.” Ha And my D feels the same way!
Has anyone gotten into honors? I heard of scholarship offers but none for honors…
I got a scholarship but no honors mention either, I haven’t heard of anyone getting honors yet.
Can anyone say if they got honors? I haven’t heard zip from anyone who’s gotten it, leading me to believe there could be an error.
My daughter was accepted into Honors but said she didn’t see any mention of scholarships.
@nanosec Same, honors but no scholarship info. Hmmm
My daughter got honors and scholarship info this afternoon in the portal
I’m hoping they are just taking longer to review everything given the increased number of EA apps. I really hope they don’t wait until April to announce those. It seems like in past years they have given out a lot of scholarships in the first round, especially to high stats OOS kids. I guess we’ll see.
Where was the scholarship info? In the Honors letter?
Under the Congrats letter there is another letter with the scholarship info. Also I think if you click View Update further down on the page there is a header with Scholarship Info
Where was the Honors information posted in the portal?
There is a drop down on the right of the portal where you can select Honors and it will bring you to that page
Congratulations to all of you!
It looks like my D did not get auto-admit to Honors. More essays in her future.
I don’t have the drop down, so I guess that makes sense that I didn’t get it. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything!
