Affirmative action was never a complete answer in the drive towards a more just society. But for generations of students who had been systematically excluded from most of America’s key institutions—it gave us the chance to show we more than deserved a seat at the table. In the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, it’s time to redouble our efforts.

Time for some real talk about appealing admissions decisions. ☕️ Receiving a “no” is undeniably rough. And sometimes the language in those denial letters letting you know that you *can* appeal gives the impression that you *should* appeal. 1/

We are rooting for you and your success! We hope that you find a school that feels like the right fit for you!! (And there's always the transfer path to UCSB if that's something that makes sense for you 🫶)

With the release of UGA final decisions today, please remember that an admission decision is not a judgement on your value as a person. It is just an admissions decision. No matter the decision, I am sure you will find a strong college match and a great college home. Good luck!

An admission offer isn’t the same thing as an affordable option. Always amazes me how some folks can’t/won’t acknowledge that basic fact.
