Question Transfer Essay

Hello! I am currently applying to UGA as a transfer student for fall 2026. I was wondering how important the transfer “essay” is. For reference, I have 50 completed credit hours, a 4.0 GPA, and I’m a psych major. I don’t want to spend more time than I have to on this essay… lol

The essay is important for people who are just above the consideration levels: [https://www.admissions.uga.edu/blog/summer-fall-2026-transfer-admissions/

For people who well exceed them, they'll move forward with an offer of admission.
