Georgia Southern University

Why did you decide to transfer to UGA?

After spending some time in college and being able to hone in on my interests, I realized how beneficial it was to attend a university that offered something related, but that would also support me. After doing research, I found that UGA truly would have me set up for success from the very moment I was accepted. Deciding to transfer is something I wish I had done sooner, but I am forever grateful that I have the opportunity to graduate from the greatest university. Go Dawgs!
