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.
About the Blog
Welcome to the UGA Admissions Blog! I am happy to respond to your comments, but I would suggest using the search box in the top right hand corner of the blog first to review past blog entries and topics.
Please do not “post unauthorized commercial solicitations (such as spam)”; “bully, intimidate, or harass any user”; “post content that is hateful or threatening”; or “do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory” on UGA’s Blog Page.
UGA reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove comments that contain commercial solicitations; are factually erroneous/libelous; are wildly off-topic.
Our mailing address is 210 South Jackson Street, Athens, GA 30602-1633, and an email for electronic transcripts (if needed) is [email protected].
