<p>I also had a choice between Dartmouth and a full ride at UGA as well as a variety of other scholarships at other schools. See this link for the full details of what I got at UGA: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/660178-results-choosing-full-ride-state-school-scholarship.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/660178-results-choosing-full-ride-state-school-scholarship.html</a></p>
<p>Also, here’s a list of where people in my scholarship class are going next year (many also received scholarships and turned down higher-ranked grad schools to attend these on scholarships):</p>
<p>Duke Law
UVA Law (x2) (One turned down Harvard Law for scholarship here)
Vandy Law
Colorado Law</p>
<p>WashU Med
Harvard Med
Dartmouth Med
UAB Med
Mayo Med
Medical College of Georgia (x2)
UGA Pharmacy
And one other med school I can’t quite remember… </p>
<p>UGA One-Year MBA</p>
<p>PhD in political science from UCSD
MFA from SUNY-Buffalo
Rotary Scholar to Tanzania
Mitchell Scholar to Ireland</p>
<p>Mormon Mission Work
Financial Analyst
State Political Campaigns</p>
<p>While perhaps the name on the diploma affected some of these outcomes, I’d say these are pretty darn good on the whole. I know tons of other Honors students attending law schools from Harvard to Emory to UVA and many others going to excellent med schools like Georgetown and UVA as well. So long as a student can keep a high GPA and do well on the standardized tests, that student will have a fine shot at top grad schools from UGA.</p>
