First, I will be out of the office for the next five days, so please hold off on any questions, or if you do submit them, be patient, as I will not be able to review any emails/blog comments until late next week. Second, February in Admissions means that our office is working on a […]
Since Early Action decisions will be going out in the late afternoon on Friday, November 18, here are a few suggestions on how to react to the four different decisions: Admit: Celebrate with family, buy a lot of UGA gear to wear for the Thanksgiving break, but remember that not everyone has received a decision […]
For all of you who are waiting anxiously by your computer/mailbox, nervous about your Early Action decision, here is some good news.
