Georgia 2011 Applicants Forum

[athenian]

In!!!! I was held for further review a couple of weeks ago!

Really? That's awesome.

I was held back in December and am encouraged that they might be looking at hold applicants. If you don't mind me asking, what were your stats?

[steelersrule]

In via e-mail. I sent my app in around 1/8. I was put on hold for further review probably around the 20th and got the e-mail today. I did not receive any scholarship info. Does that mean they are not offering one or does it usually come later?

Oh, and 165 mid 3.7, if anyone is curious.

[Stonewall]

georgia is seriously hating on everyone below 165 so far

[hokie]

Scholarship info comes in the mail... along with a window sticker.

In today as well from the Hold list. 3.7/165 In state. Was held back in December. Good luck to all!

You know, if they've decided to reject someone, they should just go ahead and say so.

[rockyIV]

Got the reject today fellas, no email, happened to see it on status checker. Who would believe I am under a 165?!?

Oh well, the North East is showin me love

[plug1]

Does scholarship info come in your admittance packet or another letter?

[stlisforlovers]

It followed the admit letter by about a week.

[bartleby]

Did any admitted OOS applicants NOT get a scholarship? I need that tuition equalizer. Even for a semester.

What I think is happening is that they don't quite want to get rid of us but they don't like us enough to just admit us, knowing that people on the edge are far more likely to attend. I have a 167 and a 2.9 so My PS must be horrible.

It's not all about your LSAT. UGA's GPA is pretty high, and a 2.9 puts you at the very bottom of their spectrum. They could be holding off till they know exactly how many more people with 167+LSATs to make it their 75th percentile till they let you know.

I'm going to visit Athens next week, anyone have any suggestions for what class I should try to sit in on / places to visit in Athens?

Check out UGA's decision chart for 165-169 LSAT from last year with a 2.75-2.99 = 15/17 admitted. Its all about the LSAT.

Just cruise around downtown and check out some of the bars. I'm sure there will be something that fits you.

As far as food, stop by Weaver D's, Kelly's Jerk, Farm 255 (fancier fare), Taqueria Del Sol, or White Tiger.

[Sandro]

Oohh also, forgot to ask - what would be a good place to take the GF on Monday (Vday) in Athens ?

[Barbie]
