Not quite. UGA is probably more difficult to get into because test scores are required.

UVA is test optional -- lot of kids with 4.0s that would not be able to compete if they had to submit test scores.

UVA's out-of-state acceptance rate for the Class of 2029 is 12.5%, while UGA's out-of-state acceptance rate is around 28%. UVA is MUCH harder to get into OOS.

Cite?

Probably the schools' CDS. Admission section now breaks down in state and OOS applications.

That poster needs to post a link to her numbers so we can verify accuracy.

For UGA or UVA?

Not the OP. But for early action at UGA (which is more selective) OOS acceptance is reported at 23%. So I would assume overall after RD it's probably in the 25-28% range.

Where did UGA post 23%?

https://www.admissions.uga.edu/blog/2025-uga-overall-ea-admissions/

"For this year’s EA group, the EA acceptance rate for In-State applicants was roughly 42%, and the acceptance rate for Out-of-State applicants was roughly 23%."

I agree with this. UVA admits 34% test optional applicants. This is a stark contrast to a school that requires scores.
