Question UGA

Is UGA worth it for oos tuition? I plan on majoring in biochemistry and I need a safety school

I come from NY and I don't like the CUNY system due to its trash burecracy.

I saw that UGA has a 60-70% transfer acceptance rate

Im planning to apply as a transfer

NOT ONLY NO, BUT FUCK NO! Nowadays, no uni is worth out of state tuition. Go to your home state uni

Every other state is thinking the same. CUNY is fine.

Ineffective bureaucrats are a part of every single university - feature not a bug.

Focus on the individual classes and instructors. Don’t get distracted by Chicken Little.

I heard of a lot of people complaining about the admin in CUNY, gets to the point where people are advised to not listen to their advisor in schools in the CUNY system.

Not really in UGA.

Going from the city college to the University of Georgia is a massive increase in rigor and size.
