How do I appeal my admission decision?
To appeal your admission decision, you will need to submit the following items by one of the deadlines outlined on this page. Deadlines, reviews and decisions will occur biweekly until the final semester deadline.
- Student Support Essay: Tell us about you. Why are you are appealing? What will make you a successful student at UWG? You may include information about extenuating circumstances if you feel it is appropriate. This essay must be written by the applicant.
- Letters of Support: You must submit at least two letters of support from school teachers, counselors, coaches, pastors, or any other personal references who can confirm your chance for success at UWG. Please do not include letters from immediate family members.
You may also provide any additional documents that you feel will help support your appeal.
Note: Appeal decisions are final. Please take your time carefully completing and submitting all required documents. If you have concerns about this decision process, you may contact your Admissions Representative for assistance or to discuss alternative options.
