On Friday, high school students who applied early action to the University of Georgia were made aware if they were going to be future Bulldogs.
For those who received the good news, this was more than just another college acceptance letter; it was a dream come true.
Students who were not accepted, don’t give up. Work hard and good things will come. Remember, all roads lead to Athens.
This year, Georgia received 16,585 early action applications and made 7,025 offers of admissions.
Kylie Dunlap was one of those fortunate enough to be admitted. A senior at Cherokee High School in Canton, Georgia, Kylie’s excitement poured through the phone screens of everyone who watched her reaction video on Twitter. The joy that not only overtook Kylie, but her parents as well, was contagious.
This video of Kylie and her family prompted me to search for some more clips of soon-to-be Dawgs receiving the best news possible.
And they did not disappoint.
Here’s Kylie’s priceless reaction.

Congratulations, #UGA24. You said your prayers, you worked your tails off, you loved your parents and you shouted ‘Go Dawgs’ every Saturday since you can remember.
You earned this.
