Georgia lets in almost half of those that apply. Let’s stop pretending it is competitive to get accepted there

If you are a UGA freshman, have a 31 on your ACT, 1340 on your SAT, and only completed 7 AP/dualenrollment/internationalbaccalaureate classes, then half of your freshman class are better than you.

The truth is that most of the high school population isn't looking to do the work to get into UGA (other schools are dropping the SAT/ACT requirement. Other schools are not requiring essays with admissions). A 1280 SAT with 5 APs is looking at Georgia State or Kennesaw State. I know. I have a freshman at KSU who regrets not getting his application in to UGA.
A ton of students are looking at UNG with the option to transfer in later.
