We received more than 38,100 Early Action applications for Fall 2027, an approximately 12% increase from last year. We plan to release admission decisions for Georgia resident applicants on Friday, November 20, and for non-resident applicants on Friday, December 11.

I’m wondering if they regret the decision to remove the supplemental essay this year. Or maybe not in this day and age of “how-many-applications-we-denied posturing.”

More likely, wondering how they can keep the party going. College admins likely lean left in their desires (access to more funding) and if you become less offensive to applicants, more will apply, (they just elected a Dem Governor) etc. and as the available audience gets smaller, what other tactics can we use to get more apps - may come next - i.e. fee waivers to certain people and more.

If anything, they might wonder - only 12% - bummer.

I think in college applications for most schools, more is better.

That’s why the Wash U and U Chicago chase apps with free waivers and more - to kids that never expressed an interest.
