It is hard to get into, It's a great school, it's the second best college town next to Boulder.
Go Dawgs
Great college town. Blows away College Park and Charlottesville in that category.
Love Athens. Love Boulder. Like Charlottesville a lot. Madison crushes them all, though. (I can see a skier preferring Boulder, of course, but town-for-town, it's no contest.)
You're reminding me that my nephew was rejected at top choice W and heading to UGA (and trying to convince himself that Athens will be ok, even though he loved Madison).
Update please!!

How does he like UGA?
If you like, taking a bus to class or to get to the other side of Campus UGA is for you.

Highly selective meaning perfect stats then a wow factor essay or activity.
Perfection isn't needed for UGA. Honors or not.
Times have changed.
Not really I UGA honors students rejected from other schools in the state. You need around a 34 minimum.

He'll love Athens and UGA, no doubt. Don't even sweat that.
Surprised that a kid who got into UGA would be rejected at Wisconsin. My impression is that UF and UGA passed Madison in academics a few years ago. But I guess there are always outliers. All three are great schools.
That's because you take your cues from USNWR. In the real world, Wisconsin is a great school (having largely rebounded from the Walker administration's malfeasance); UGA is a good and improving school; and UF is a good but rapidly deteriorating school (as DeSantis makes Walker look like a rank amateur when it comes to cutting down institutions of higher learning).
This is patently false. UF has been going nowhere but up in the rankings since De Santis became governor. There's probably no connection between those two things, but still it's far from "rapidly deteriorating."![]()
You're looking at trailing indicators. It's been less than a year that DeSantis decided to run to the right of Trump and turned his state's higher ed into a whipping boy to advance those presidential dreams. The faculty with decent exit options are leaving--at all the Florida schools but especially at UF and (obviously) New College. Student satisfaction is through the floor. Yield is down this year. Apps will be down next year. So will enrolled student "stats." Regardless of whether you can see it (yet) in the almighty USNWR pecking order, UF has thrown it into reverse at high speed.
