With the Early Action deadline passing, here are a few updates about the process:

  • Total Early Action Applications: Approximately 11,400
  • Complete Early Action Applications: Approximately 5,600
  • Number of Early Action Applicants Applying on the Deadline: Approximately 2,100

As you can see, about half of all Early Action applications are not complete.  Additionally, almost a fifth of the total applicant pool for EA applied on the deadline.  This means our office is receiving thousands of documents, test scores, etc.  We appreciate your patience as we work as quickly as possible to match documents with files.

It takes our office about 5 to 10 business days to match a document with an applicant’s file.  As we have said before, our deadlines are postmark deadlines.  If your material was submitted by the deadline, it will be considered for Early Action.  We will accept the October 6 SAT for Early Action as long as you designated UGA as a school to automatically receive your scores.

Be sure to check your myStatus to make sure you are complete!  If material you have sent is not showing up on your myStatus, double-check with your counselor, College Board, etc. to make sure that it was sent.  If it was sent and it has been more than 5 to 10 business days, please contact us.

Now that you have submitted your application, take a few minutes to relax and enjoy the fall!

Go Dawgs!
