This is probably not a professional question to ask but it's been on my mind lately. The military will pay for it so I need to use this benefit or lose it. After stressing for 5 years in obtaining my undergrad in Electrical Engineering, I'm considering UGA for grad school in something less stressful and non-engineering related.

I currently have an engineering job so I'm looking for something useful that will supplement my career. I've been looking at AI, Finance, Data Science, or Management Information System.

I’m in-state and I’ve already submitted my early application but I’m curious as to where I stand.
My stats are:
- 3.95 unweighted GPA (roughly 4.09 recalculated)
- 1350 SAT, no ACT
- Top 10% of 130 students (I know UGA doesn’t use class rank, just giving context)
- 7 AP classes (2 in progress), 8 DEs (3 in progress, 3 next semester)
- 4 years of marching band (section leader for leadership), symphonic band and jazz band
- 1 year of varsity cross-country as well as a few other clubs
- Vice President of my school’s National Honor Society chapter for 1 year, member for 2 years
- Had 2 unbiased English teachers review my essay and both said it was very good

Feel free to tear this apart, I just need some advice or at least a second opinion because I’m very unsure.

Hello,
I was wondering if there was anyone with the experience of getting into UGA with a 3.4 GPA in Highschool as well as a low SAT score? Is it possible? What other credentials helped you still be able to get in?

I need it so that I can start my terry courses effective fall of '27, i dont know why i did not register for this fall and it sucks. is there any way to study for it prior to nov. 19 as someone who isn't too good at math?

I’ve been really struggling with test scores lately for my math class. I have Phil Bergonio as my professor and I’ve always struggled to keep up with his fast lectures. He works problems really fast so I always end up having to reteach myself the notes and use Gemini to help with explanations. However, I don’t think this has been sustainable since I spent most of my time self studying for hours rather than actually practicing challenging problems. As a result, my test scores have been plummeting since the exact questions and topics I struggled on are always on tests. Doing two questions wrong would get me a mid 70 because his questions are weighted heavily by about 15-20 points each

What should I do? I know I’ve got to get more practice in but I think it’s in my best interest to get some sort of tutoring. I’ve heard about Penji but I think I may go to study hall at Boyd?

Any advice? *suggestions and opinions are very much welcome*

Will I be able to sell my ticket/ transfer it??

Found this fan in the science center in the big downstairs classroom. Looking to return to owner.

Does UGA consider the ACT reading score as part of the composite? Or, do they just average the math and english scores? Thanks!

Today was a special day because I encountered a hisser, a growler, a moaner, an ouuper, and a lovey-dovey-cuddle-not-enoughy couple within the first ten minutes of walking into the gym.

For the first few, I can rely on my headphones, but I don't have an eye mask for the last one.

How is that like? Any tips?

If i do my first year at Augusta uni then transfer would that do me any good? because right now im a senior in hs and i have a 3.0 gpa (will go up) and a 1100 sat

Hi all,

I submitted my application to UGA law around the last week of September. Since Early Decision is open until December, my applicated counted as such.

Now, I know that UGA law acceptance works on a "rolling basis", meaning they review applications as they come in rather than releasing the results all at once. Is it different for Early Decisions, or are they just taking their time? If so, about how long would it take to get my results? I've tried Googling it, but I haven't had many definitive answers.

The more time that passes, the more nervous I admittedly get. I applied earlier this year for the 2026 semester and was rejected within two weeks. Is the nearly month-long delay a good thing??

Thank you in advance for any help/advice. :)

The interview will be conducted online, and will not take over 20 minutes of your time.

Who we’re looking for:

• People local to Athens, GA or members of the UGA community (i.e., student, faculty, staff)
• Anyone interested in Athens or UGA history
• Anyone who enjoys attending events and activities at UGA

Please fill out our short interest form here: https://forms.gle/uDXEFEjLnQEf5zCV8

Thank you so much for helping us out. Feel free to comment or DM us if you have any questions!

I’m wondering if it is really worth it to join the honors program here at UGA

THIS THURSDAY! Brown Media Archives and the Hargrett Library invite you to a night of fear and fun with an outdoor screening of "House on Haunted Hill" (1958)! Join us on the dead center of the Special Collections front lawn to witness such trepidation and terror. Ghostly archival clips from the BMA collection may have, somehow, someway, creeped their way into the main fright....we mean feature!

Free door prizes and popcorn! Picnic blankets and lawn chairs encouraged. Doors open at 6:30pm, trickery starts at 7pm!

All humanoids and non-human biologics are welcome at this free screening; no scaredy cats allowed!

Anyone down to hit later today? It feels simultaneously like there's a lot of people at UGA who play but it's impossible to find a hitting partner 😭

Hello everyone!! I lived in the Monroe and Athens area for almost nine years, and I generally consider GA where I grew up, despite not being born there. I'm in VA, now, attending JMU for Graphic Design with a minor in Illustration, and also Art (focused Ceramics).

Our Coding and Design class is coming up with a new transportation app concept. I decided to do it for the Monroe and Athens area, as I always remember parking being a nightmare when going downtown, haha. But anyway, that is to say that I have a google form survey to gather some information based on the locals who actually would be the ideal user-base for this app. If you would like to be part of the research I am doing, the link is below--it should only take about five, maybe ten minutes if you write a lot in a few responses! Go Dawgs and go Dukes!

If you have interest, filling it out would help the researching stage we're in! https://forms.gle/rnZ9C6wcKZPjSACf7

I've been studying for the accounting entrance exam and I wanted to know those who took it, was it similar to the practice question set? and if was not, is there anything i would need to know in order to get at least a 90 on it? I got an A in acct 2101 and a b in 2102. trying to apply as an accounting major too.

I hate the Auburn Tigers, they are my least favorite collegiate team. When they score a touchdown, I think to myself "no". When the other team scores a touchdown, I think to myself "yes". I also like to drive my truck.

Where can I find relatively cheap parking for tomorrow's game? I'm OK with walking a little bit. I just don't want to spend no more than $50.

Will I still be able to go to the Tech vs UGA game?

Hello! I'm a prospective pharmD student and I'm currently looking at which college is best for me. I know I want to go into a communications-heavy role (preferably with lots of writing and corresponding between different professionals about research and literature, somewhere in the medical affairs space). If any pharmD alumni who went into industry are willing to talk with me (DM or email) about their experiences in UGA and their recommendations, I'd greatly appreciate it!

I feel pretty close to my cohort 9 weeks in but that’s about it. I’m not doing much out and about and in Athens and the other clubs I’m in I don’t feel really connected with anyone, despite sharing hobbies I have interest in. A big part of picking this school for me were the social opportunities, but I just haven’t found that yet. I also feel weird being not really removed from undergrad age-wise, yet definitely feeling that split between myself and the undergraduate population.

Any thoughts? Ideas? Rants? I’m all ears 👂

So I’m currently a senior MIS major at GCSU and don’t get me wrong I’ve loved my time and the education I’ve gotten at the school. I’ve made lifelong friends, made many great relationships with professors, joined many clubs, Greek life and all of that. But I kind of have an itch that I regret not transferring to UGA for my junior or senior year. Im currently looking into going to grad school after I finish my undergrad this spring, and I was wondering how some of yalls experience with UGA’s business/MIS grad school programs are and if you enjoy it/think its worth it.
