In preparation for First Year decisions, the myStatus page will be temporarily closed. This will affect the status check for First Year and Transfer applicants. We must do this to allow our office to begin the final stages of the decision process. We will still be making transfer decisions during this time and letters will continue to be mailed Please bear with us as we move forward with decisions. We do not have a date for the release of First Year decisions. Once that is available, we will post an update.
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].
