University of Georgia

University of Georgia reads exactly one piece of writing: the Common App personal statement (250-650 words). There is no "why University of Georgia" essay and no short answers, so adding it to a list costs zero extra essays; the statement you already have is the entire file here.

That cuts both ways. With no supplement, there is no second chance to show fit or interest in writing, so the one essay has to do all the character work on its own.

Early Action (October 15, 2026) is non-binding: an earlier answer with no commitment attached. Regular Decision closes January 1, 2027. Applying early means your essay is final about 11 weeks sooner; that is the revision time you trade for an earlier answer.
