[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some Parents who attended UGA 30 years ago are surprised at how difficult it is for their kids to get in now. Some of these kids are going to Auburn, USC and Alabama. It’s tough because not everyone can afford to pay OOS tuition. Hopefully UGA doesn’t run into the same issue as UVA where many in-state families are feeling like they’re being shut out. [/quote] The issue is state schools are now much more desirable. This means that average kids really don’t have a chance. In state kids still go there but they are much stronger students than they were years ago. Your kid now has to have much stronger stats than you did. And by this I don’t just mean a higher GPA. You have to have a high GPA and be near the top of your class. [/quote]
