Op here, so surprised all these deferral to rejections. Would have thought if good enough for deferral, waitlist was more likely.

In-state Deferred EA.

REJECTED

Ok, well this was the final decision we were waiting on (#1 choice), so now at least we can go to plan B and be done with it. I don't know why but our family had so much anxiety for my kid about this particular decision. I guess it's all the hype about UGA lately.

Same. And it's #1. What are your kids stats and where else are they considering?


Top choice too.
3.7 UW, 8 APs and 1500 SAT
GPA will be the issue I think

Will probably go to FSU

How about your kid?



Funny- FSU likely second choice too.

34 superscore but lowest sections English and math. 4.62/3.83 MCPS but UGA GPA 4.0. The UGA one is the one that matters

8 APs but not very rigorous ones.


I hope your kid got good news. Mine was rejected as we expected.

I wish they hadn't built up this waitlist anxiety all week long with the blog post.


Don't give up hope. The blog post says that "we expect to use the wait list for a fair number of admissions offers after seeing the deposit data after May 1."

Good luck!

32.9 overall, must assume much lower oos.


Line about rigor worries me. DC in 4 Apps but not particularly hard ones.
