That means accepting close to 8,000 students for a target freshman class of 4,000. The nearly 7,000 students remaining in this year's freshman applicant pool will be evaluated on academic criteria, and the Total Student Index will then be applied to those at the top. We are not looking at academically marginal students. To arrive at the Total Student Index, the Faculty Admissions Committee has added two new demographic factors that provide some boost to students who are from economically disadvantaged counties or from low-performing Georgia public high schools. Additional factors weighed in determining the TSI are such criteria as extracurricular activities, immediate family alumni relatives, or coming from a family where one or both parents did not attend college.
Race also continues to be among the factors, though a pending lawsuit has challenged that practice.
The deadline for transfer applications is April 1 for summer enrollment and June 1 for fall enrollment. A wait list will be kept for sophomores with GPAs between 2.3 and 2.79, according to Albright. We'll admit students from the wait list on a space-available basis. This site works best with the latest version of Netscape Navigator 4.0 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0.
