Here is my weekly update on the Fall Transfer process, and how the general timeline is looking for this group. Our evaluation team is moving along at a very strong pace, as almost 900 admit decisions have gone out, and almost 1,400 decisions as a whole have been made (admit and deny). Taking into account […]
As I stated last week, I will try to post a weekly update about Fall transfers and how the process is going. Since tomorrow is a furlough day, I will be out of the office an unable to see what is going on with the numbers, and our evaluation team will also be out. As […]
Although I cannot give daily updates on what is happening with Fall transfer decisions, I will try to post a weekly update either on Thursday or Friday about the progress our office has made in reviewing Fall files. I will not be able to tell you when your file will be reviewed, what date is […]

The transfer decision process is very different from the freshman process, so please take note. While the freshman decisions go out at three times during the year (December, late […]
Every once in a while, I will receive an email or a response to this blog asking “I have X GPA, X SAT’s, …, so what are my chances for admission at UGA?” While it may sound like an easy question, unless the student is at the very top or very bottom on everything from […]
