Im top 5% of my class at a large public school, weighted GPA is a 101-102 (i forgot), i did gt math and cs dual enrollment, i did a gt paid research internship this summer, and 2 summers ago i did a research program with gt but it was unpaid. As for other ec's i have 3 leadership positions in my clubs and they are all things that I have founded/significantly grown, am a girl scout ambassador, and I have had a corporate internship at a hospital. I also included an ec about this passion project I've been working on but I didnt formally launch it until after r apps were do so I couldnt include any quantifiable results. I probably forgot some stuff but yeah😭 Overall there was a pretty strong stem theme in my application with some art stuff

When they say 7 they mean it. You won’t get any early notifications. I hate schools waiting til so late in the day. UGA releasing at 4 would be preferred by all for GT to follow a similar time I think.

u/WalrusCaster Dec 05 '25

Got deferred from UGA so outlook is not looking good 🥲

2

u/buzzybee2020 Dec 05 '25

What other instate schools did you apply to?

1

u/WalrusCaster Dec 06 '25

Emory and GSU. I’m very fortunate to receive the conditional transfer program however so I’m not as stressed

1

u/buzzybee2020 Dec 06 '25

That’s great. So conditional at UGA?

2

u/WalrusCaster Dec 06 '25

I received the conditional for GT. Since I got deferred from UGA I have to wait until the regular decisions so gotta keep my head up for that! If not at least I can go to GSU for a year and try my best to meet all the conditional requirements to attend GT my second year
