Getting Down to Brass Tacks: The Stats
Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.
Grades That Make You Go "Heck Yeah!"
UGA likes their students to be, well, studious. Acing those classes (or at least coming pretty darn close) is a must. Think of your GPA as your personal cheerleader - the higher it jumps, the more impressed UGA will be.Test Scores: Friend or Foe? Listen, the SAT and ACT aren't everything, but they do hold some weight. While UGA doesn't have a strict cut-off score, think competitive - like the kind of competitive that involves dodging textbooks and fueled by an unhealthy amount of coffee.
The Magic of Coursework: Take it Up a Notch! UGU loves to see students who challenge themselves. AP, IB, or any other super-charged courses are your golden ticket to showing them you're ready for the college rodeo.
