In preparation for the Freshmen decisions that will be sent out in late March, the myStatus page will be temporarily closed to allow our office to begin the final stages of the decision process. We will still be making transfer decisions during this time, and these applicants will still be notified by mail. Please bear with us as we move forward with decisions, and when I have a date of the release of freshmen decisions, I will post it here.

UGA reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove comments that contain commercial solicitations; are factually erroneous/libelous; are wildly off-topic.
