About University of Georgia
University of Georgia is a large public university in Athens, GA, in a city setting.
What University of Georgia looks for
With an acceptance rate around 38%, the application readers spend less time per file than they do at the most selective schools, but they still read. A solid GPA, strong letters, and an essay that sounds like you wrote it yourself go a long way here. The biggest unforced error: a generic supplement essay. Even moderately selective schools notice when you have not bothered to learn anything about them.
Frequently asked
What SAT score do I need for University of Georgia?
University of Georgia's middle 50% SAT range is 1270 to 1480. A score in or above that band keeps you in the conversation; below it, the rest of your application has to do more work.
What ACT score do I need for University of Georgia?
Middle 50% ACT range is 29 to 34. The top of that range or above is what most admitted students submit when they choose to send a score.
What is the acceptance rate at University of Georgia?
University of Georgia admits roughly 38% of applicants. Selective, but stats inside the middle 50% put you in real contention.
What does University of Georgia actually cost after financial aid?
Average net cost (after institutional aid) is about $13,936 per year. Net cost varies enormously by family income; run the school's net price calculator for an estimate that reflects your situation.
Is University of Georgia a reach, match, or safety for me?
Compare your stats to the middle 50% above. If you are at or below the 25th percentile, treat University of Georgia as a reach. If you are in the middle 50%, it is a match. Above the 75th percentile and the school accepts above 25% overall, it is closer to a safety. Selectivity below 20% should be treated as a reach for everyone, period.
