Entrance Requirements
Either

through
Athena.uga.edu
(
if a current UGA student
)
or apply to UGA
through
Undergraduate Admissions
(

Once admissions decisions are made, any major change requests for accepted students will be approved.
Be sure to choose the official major, not the intended major (for example, choose “Water and Soil Resources,” NOT “Water and Soil Resources Intended”).
