Those averages will generally come down after Regular Admission admits as EA admits will have the highest mean stats. Also, from total early action both in-state and OOS - 34,280 Applied and 10,760 were accepted. Acceptance rate for all EA is 31.3 %.

Yes, but overall acceptance rate is not that helpful. I wish all the big public flagships would break it down instate/oos. Not helpful for a kid to see a 31% total acceptance rate when it is closer to 21%.

it's higher than 21%

They give you the numbers. You just have to do a little math. It's 22.4%

20,730 out of state apps, accepted 4,600 is the 22%

This makes no sense, if anyone here was overqualified, theywwould be getting the big merit scholarships like city scholars

This board is funny. Are you really splitting hairs over whether the OOS EA acceptance rate is “closer to 21%” vs 22.4%? That is a distinction without a difference in my book.

Congrats to the kids headed to Georgia next year. It seems like a fun place to get a degree!

Wrong again. What’s your problem and why won’t you stop repeating misinformation? If you’re overqualified they will give you a scholarship or honors.

We see this with VT too. Some parents just refuse to accept that their kid didn’t get in therefore it must be yield protection. It’s pathetic, really. But that argument fails when you remember truly overqualified kids are admitted AND given an incentive to attend.

Yeah because being accurate in admission stats is not that important. :/

21% and 22.4% are not statistically different. Sorry UGA lives rent free in your head.

IvyWise has a helpful chart of acceptance and yield rates for schools over the last few years and it includes in state and OOS rates for many publics.
