John

The type of individual that should attend UGA is an individual that doesn't mind being in a large school. People who love small colleges will not want to attend UGA. A person with good time management skills would be a great candidate. The students have to juggle class times with route times of the buses along with walking time to each class. Also, the rigor of the courses at UGA aren't the easiest. A person attending UGA will need to be hardworking and dedicated to succeed at the University of Georgia.

Overall, the person should be open to meeting new people because there is so many to meet!

Steven

Acceptance into the University of Georgia conveys a mutual respect between institution and student. Only the best are accepted, and in return, the best effort is expected. That said, hard work and an intense desire to learn are only part of the equation. Really, on such a large, vibrant campus, opportunities exist for everyone. No matter race, religion, political belief, or socio-economic status, we all bleed red and black.

Kahja

Independence is the key. Sure, it's quite common to hop on over to your hallmate's dorm room to ask for a pen and maybe a little company, but once the pressure is high and finals have everyone fiesting on eraser tips and locking their doors, it's best to pack yourself a little bag of courage and walk it alone for a while. Sure, the smiles here are well in abundance, but you'll have to go hunting for them on your own.

Sydney

UGA is such a big school and accomodates many types of people, but it best suits a student who is driven and yearning for a higher education. They cannot be afraid of a big campus and a large student body, and they should have a great sense of school pride. UGA is perfect for the student who wants to be involved and the student who wants to succeed.

Ariell

Those who are: serious about learning; able to study in spite of temptation to go party; able to deal with lots and lots of people; able to read a campus map; able to set priorities; open-minded; able to communicate with the professors; willing to get involved in something; able to be completely responsible for yourself; disciplined; enjoy adventure.

Samuel

Anyone who enjoys a "busy" environment that loves to meet new people will LOVE the University of Georgia! I just started this Spring, and already I know more people than the previous two colleges I attended in Georgia. Everyone I have talked to is fun-loving, yet still manages to keep up with school studies. Even for a large school, the professors really seem to "care" about every student, and are easily approachable. In short, if you're looking for a fun place to meet new people, Athens is the place to be!

David

This is a very big and diverse school. To go to UGA requries a person with a very strong motivation for learning. This school is challenging and fun at the same time. It is very easy to get along with students at UGA because everyone is more than willing to help others. Going to UGA also means that you are going to be part of Athens, being a college town. Just about anyone who loves bulldogs and wants to get a great education should go here.

Alana

A Georgia raised conservative that is of at least the middle class.

Shonda

Students who want to attend the University of Georgia must be focussed on one goal and that goal is getting a great education. The admission's process here is more competitive than it has ever been, so it is not a good idea to apply if you are not serious about your education.

Wesley

Any student in the state of Georgia should attend because it is the best way to spend HOPE. There is such a diverse group of people attending you cannot really characterize the typical UGA student.

jessie

someone who doesn't mind living in small town, and maybe is going to study science (they have a good research/science division). they also have good study abroad programs, so someone who is interested in that. Some one who likes football!

Mary

A UGA student can be anyone, but those who are most successful are able to handle large groups, diverse theories, and many options for study. The campus provides many opportunites for travel, research, and independent discovery. Students who need constant guidance, individual instruction, and adult supervision should not attend this school.

Stephanie

Any person who has the desire to achieve their dreams and who wants to be a part of a "big school" atmosphere should attend this school, because it is the perfect school to not only learn about your major, but also to have experience in your field of study as well as having the oppportunity to get involved in a very social atmosphere.

Michelle

Someone who enjoys city life but also the country. There is a big agricultural focus here, and there are also many conservatives, but there is an underground libral pulse to life here. If you're into music, Athens is for you. If you like coffee, Athens is for you, and our pre-pharmacie,med, and law programs are very highly recommended. Also, if you want to play football, you will be worshiped.

Benjamin

The kind of person who has taken the time to realize or develop a true sense of the career path he or she wishes to pursue through higher education. Once this idea has been achieved this person must research if UGA has all of the necessary resources to help this person obtain his or her goals. The kind of person who should attend this school is someone who truly and feels and knows that this university has everything to offer this particular individual.

Caroline

A person who attends this school should definitely be willing to work hard to gain success. Some people who come here may not realize the amount of dedication to education that is necessary to get ahead and keep up grades because of the abundant social scene around us. What really sets a person apart who deserves to stay at this school from someone who may end up leaving is the well rounded person who is willing to put time in to study but also knows how to relax and have a good time.

These students are all visionaries and will do just about anything to make their dreams come true. As a school of oveachievers, it is only natural to be a dreamer. Anybody that has big dreams and doesn't mind working hard to make their dreams come true should most definetly attend this school.
