i am headed to UGA this fall, but southern was also one of my options. Because i didnt apply early to UGA, and southern offered me INSANE amounts of money to go there, i was really considering it.

my SAT was a 1350, and my weighted GPA was a 4.1… southern asked me to apply to the honors college, accepted me, and called my house almost every other day to confirm that i would be attending the honors college orientation, which was in early april. ( i believe. but i never ended up going, because i was accepted into uga early action.)

before i found out that i was accepted to UGA, i was really excited about going to Southern… although, MANY many people told me not to go. they said that there was NOTHING to do there accept party, drink, have sex… etc. i figured it was a rumor, until i talked to students that actually attended gsu for there freshman year.

their freshmen drop out rate is not only because of fail outs, but also because of transfer who can no longer stand the campus and students.

if UGA or tech is not an option, i would definately recommend georgia state, or even kennesaw state for your first year… uga’s transfer criteria is much easier than their regular admission process…
