#Georgia Tech (2022-2023)

anyone know when the stamps merit scholarships are coming out?
i've heard this week?
Semifinalists announced tomorrow
oh icic
what's the amount they give?
does it vary
is it like 5K? 10K? half ride etc
Itβs either gold (in-state tuition) or stamps (full ride)
oh wow
announced where?
then it's like all or nothing
email and/or portal ig
Should either be a decision in your portal. Maybe email
so do we get the letter tomorrow
Yes π¬
is the timeline the exact same for gold too?
like semis tmrw
Yes. If you are a stamps finalist, then you are garenteed gold
And I think a few non-finalists get gold, announced the same day the finalists are released
Realllllly hoping to be one of those 325 semifinalists tomorrow π«‘ out of state tuition is a bit steep
Cause even just to get the gold scholarship is big
wait what
spill the tea pls
i haven't found anything negative about GT online im ngl
i searched long and hard
hey i need both sides ok
college aint a cakewalk
lol same solely bcs of climate though
we gotta wait for vin
like alright ill keep it stack. every student here at georgia tech is exceptionally bright imo. with that said, school isn't fun because they have to make school "challenging", challenging not only to me but challenging to all the mfin valedictorians and salueditarians of the world who end up here. so like academics is doable, but almost all classes will grill tf out of you, they'll work you on hyperdrive and test your critical thinking to new reaches. that's purely academics.
what about gt is prestigious
ok its just the academic pressure to be expected ehh
its not cal eecs level toxic
yall dont sabotage and shit right
academics, everyone's gotta do it and get through it, so what's worse in my opinion is the fuckin social life. literal feels like 95% of kids are introverted and nerdy, no one really goes out much because they're too busy w work
im pretty sure uiuc has more prestige in cs
that sounds boring
=
it makes sense but it's just like atlanta is SUCH a lively ass place
they're equal lol
but georgia tech students don't fit the same vibe
ok this is true
wait i feel like
for ppl who work fast
transfer AP/DE credits
and stuff
idt its that anymore
yeah I transferred from uga, transferred 87 credits to tech thank god π
business school is low rate too
it is
in terms of student body
is gt a party school
ok so hte thing is im a bay area cs nerd so π
I think it became 40% overall after it went into common app
im a no lifer more or less
that's straight, that's 95% of kids here haha
I thought that was UGA
nah UGA is a party school
idk im asking
tech is the opposite
even STEM/CS ppl?
@compact crater I didnβt apply to GT but howβs football there
Itβs more like 69% when including the transfer option and incomplete applications since they also got rejected
knows how to work hard play hard, unlike tech students here who work hard then work harder
six flags
lmao
but you'll find the people here are really boring
my transition from UGA to tech was tough in that aspect
do ppl try to have fun on weekends
people do shit yeah
its no question that tech is just better, its more well known prestigious etc
haha
OK BRO
probably busy studying for test based on what he said
@vague belfry https://www.admissions.illinois.edu/apply/freshman/admit-rate pretty much all of their colleges have under a 50% admit rate. uiuc is not a safety school
but what Im pointing the problem to is the polarity in the social life here
Whatβs a Georgia tech student called
a yellow jacketer
Is that actually what they call themselves lmao
Ok thank you
ok i mean im not tryna get litty every weekend but like
a yellow jacket ya
yeah lmao
yeah no that's not happening
it seems alr
you'll be spending friday and saturday nights studying too haha
yea im used to that shit π
wtf is a boiler maker
purdue
honestly for yall I think you guys are chilling
ik its purdue. idk what is is
ah
georgia tech is not that bad of a transition if you're coming straight from high school
boilermaker?
SNL?
BOILER UP HAMMER DOWN
mhm
wheres that from
π
How hard is to start from 0 credits
what
π
π
so you're spending at least 4.5 years here
wtf
would you say the friends you have are like real or like just bcs you live in the same campus
no its not it increasingly decreased in acceptance rate this year to like 20%(sorry this is for data science + info sciences) maybe info school is diff
helpppppp
that's why i said pretty much. admit rates will be even lower this year.
I live off campus but my new roommates are all hella nice
I love them to death mainly cuz they're the only friends I have here but they're real friends
Ik i saw
they look out for me, they've helped me so much thus far in my transition into tech
W
nice
see thats what im sayin bruh
ppl are acc supportive
and W ppl
aint gonna find that shi at cal eecs
its fine introverts thrive together
towards transfers too?
yep
hell yeah
Nicee
and btw like 2 - 3 out of every 5 people have transferred into this school
sooooo many transfers
Oh wtfff lol
are u including the sophomore transfers too
yeah
like those with the conditional offer
including me yeah
ah damn damn
ooo vin did u get the transfer pathway thing when u orig applied?
LOL
π
π
yall homies?
i didn't think so????
discord homies :))
πΉ
LOL
yeah lmfao
you can dox my ass all you want
LMAO
lol frrr

networking π₯
i need to up those connections ya dig
lol
nice
nah come on
was I at the top
we can find it ourselves
π€
lol true
yessir
yeah do that for ur safety actually not mine haha
lmao
mods there is nothing to speak of here
Yep
absolutely nothing
ya reminds me of linkedin
like the biggest W of this school which u guys all know is the name, like the prestige
from my perspective here, that truly has been revolutionary
like bro I was not getting SWE Intern offers from PNC or Cox Automotive or other companies while I was at UGA, just to be completely honest
the prestige is real
the tech hub in atlanta is truly surreal, presence of FAANG and top companies who recruit outta this mfin school is nice
Prestige doesn't matter once you get your first job
so in the long run it doesn't matter, they're right
oh yea fax
but for INTERNSHIPS
where school plays a huge part because it dictates credibility to employers
it truly does matter
but its like its not prestigious for the sake of being prestigious, it has offerings that led to that prestige ykwim
prestige is like an umbrella concept
it's all systematic within tech
Georgia tech is more prestigious than Purdue for cs right
im lwk 90% set on GT btw so π
sorry dumb question but GT transfer pathway thing so far has been my only result letter, but im just like thinkin like would it rly be worth for me to transfer in like is it that crayπ¨
so exciting
@trim sonnet wanna join Georgia Tech '27 server?
is transferring rough idk i thougjt u usually make cliques during ur 1st yr of dormingπ
hmm is it only for comitted ppl tho?
like officially
i mean very high chance i will commit but like yea
good shit, just be excited for the worst 4 years of your life haha π
pain
idts there were people saying, I'll go gtech if rejected by stanford & mit
nothing is as bad as my HS experience im ngl
yeah nah nah ur chillin
my HS experience was tough, I took 14 AP's
tech feels like high school
but it's a bit worse
I got deferred ea here
but if ur a valedictorian or saluditarian or top 10 in ur class or some shit you're chilling haha
yea haha im not even top 10% LMFAO
i am noooot
like those kids aren't necessarily top here
because what separates students from one another academically here is their ability to try
again everyone here is smart asf
yea
ur not getting the motivation + support + opps combo anywhere else im tellin u man
but they have the innate ability to do very well, those top 10 mfers
only two of the three
hmmm im kind of dumb as shit
triangle thing
you got in tho (im assuming)
so you deserve it
π
wait whats that
but 100% garunteed right?
ye
oh icic nice
oh then yea, could u pls send
either here or DM
Can/do u hang out with emory and gs kids
you can yeah
they just aren't very local
you can meet emory and state people in bars and other social areas tho
holy
anyone know the in-state shit for ga
I need time lol
They release stamps semifinalist tomorrow right?
Yesss
And gold semis
So exciting
And anxiety inducing
do i just have to stay one year in georgia? this is what the government site says
this is brutal
no more apps coming out?
Ivy leagues and cal EECS
guys
But nahhh
someone says that they grind you to death
haha yea
i feel like it depends on whou talking to
^
bruh
ik there are parties but u cant compare that to uga prob
is it just like frat bros
idk much about greek life here
yea i mean
go to gsu
its def not common
what the hell is gsu
but just tryna get a sense of like
georgia state
georgia state π
how many ppl care about parties
ok
its like 15 minutes away from tech
100% acceptance rate
oh my god ur not exagerrating π
wtf
wait uh
nah thats just the giant number google shows based on wiki
everything else shows between 70-80%
lol whatever
yeah its weird
my friend has been waiting 2 months for theur decision
with rolling decisions
the rd decision date
i mean
the rd due date
is april 1sy
1st
ngl thats just a feeder to gtech
they usually give letters back in like 2-3 weeks
im only going beceause i have to do that transfer thing
to gsu?
maybe
oh yea @polar shell how are humanities like at GT π
nice
either gsu or some cc in georgia
i mean like gen eds?
U know how many of the 325 semi finalist are oos?
tbh idk but they're prob just standard
i mean GT is certainly not a well rounded education
which is fine with me at least
i imagine theres fewer hum gen eds?
and more stem gen eds?
idk i made that up
@trim sonnet u get into cs?
no, you'd be surprised
with the amount of random ass mfin humanity classes here
i didn't expect it when i came either
in a nut shell, its basically something like
2 english classes
integral calculus (ap calc bc)
a computing class
6 hrs of humantities/ethics
8 hrs of sciences
4 hrs of math
12 hrs of social science
some require an ethics class
u get better housing if u commit earlier?
Yea
Yea
nice same
oh
ok i mean im not complaning??
π€£
damn english tho
lemme check out ap credit tmrw
enough college stuff for today
u can only get english 1101 with ap lang or ap lit
u still need to take english 1102
oh awesome
school doesn't offer lang but im taking ap lit rn
the ap test tho
uhh
nice
after lang i was done with ap englishes lol
yea
most ap credit is 4/5 at tech
3's for foreign language aps
https://catalog.gatech.edu/academics/undergraduate/credit-tests-scores/advanced-placement-exams/
i can't believe how much research i did on this school in like 3 days
time to start HW
oh so ur gonna commit before you get into ivies or ucs?
and then uncommit if you get into a school u like better?
for housing
LMAO nono
u can't just uncommit like that
im saying screw the ivies - i did like 3 of them + duke + cmu
UCs uh well its kinda complex
but basically i don't want cal (eecs) bc yk toxic
imo
ah gotchu
gt more prestigious (and all the stuff "prestige" correlates with) for cs than ucla and lower so yea
yea honestly i wouldnt go to cal eecs either
i got deferred and am NOT excited to write the 150 word LOCI
i feel so done with college apps
like a few days ago i had my Princeton interview and thought that was at least over, but then Tufts emailed me for one π
r u in state for it too?
anybody else feel like even with so many college results in limbo they're just sick and tired?
yup
btw why dont u want to go to cmu?
isnt it rly good
for cs
yeaa but im looking for smth else
like a large STEM thing
CMU SCS is hella small
and im not getting in lmao the avg sat is 1570
and ofc the tuition
parents will say they can afford but like tbh i dont want them to pay 70K
makes sense
also idk i get weird vibes with private schools
its all just me tho
to each their own
yea same with me for ivies cuz i would rather go to uiuc which costs half
yea no i agree with u

βDemocracy dies in darknessβ
yall didnt know that?
I meant she wasnβt gonna get out of deferral bruh
no i did
Like not accepted
but the context
o
As a user of the A2C Discord server, I am frustrated that my messages rarely receive proper replies. Despite asking for assistance, many of my questions go unanswered or are met with responses that are vague or incorrect. Even some of the mods on the server are not providing the help that I need. It is disheartening and discouraging to have such little support when I am trying to get answers and assistance. This is why I have grown to dislike the A2C Discord server - because it doesn't provide the answers and help that I am seeking.
can u spell ?
ouch
Iβm sorry that weβre not telling you what porn is
this is giving UCB
Thank you.
WTF DID I WALK INTO
Thank you.

Please post it on the subreddit but replace discord with subreddit
I wanna see what happens

wow
Sure.
Send me a link to the subreddit.
wait what flair tho

Serious

Thank you.
also itβs somewhat correct ngl
Sure, thank you!

Great!
Holy fuck this dude is mean
He's true!
"This is coming from a Cornell alum" π₯Έ
So real
Him posting that is gonna help me cope with my Cornell deferral
he's a troller
porn
Are you requesting or just stating a fact
Yes!
first time iβve heard of this tbh..
100% upvote rate!!
as soon as say the word the minions follow my orders
anyone know what time gold's/stamp's semifinalist is released tomorrow?
About 5 minutes after 5 minutes before they release iirc
I could be wrong
sometime in the next 24 hours
astrophysics?
so no set time?
i dont think so
didnt know this before
another test first thing 8 am in the morning
what class
after i just bombed this physics test probably :)
6
poly sci
6 what?
ah
I would really love it if y'all upvote it!
Yeah
6/6
0 votes and 3 comments so far on Reddit
i have a friend whoβs gt β25 and does stamps and she got it bc she worked with biden on his campaign ππ
6 dollars
No thatβs so fucking wrong itβs not even funny
Itβs just 6
2211 or 2212 
Yeah gj
Ok right direction
2211, bro fuck 2212
the chat is flagged again π₯Έ
did u already do 2 consecutive labs?
i just havent taken a physics class since 8th grade so im kinda trippin with this difficulty
yeah I did bio 1 and 2 as my 2 course lab sequence
whoever likes physics is high (jokes while i have to take 3 physics classes)
oh nice
I like physics π¦
damn yβall cs kids are insane
ill force myself to like physics
tbf i had ap physics 1 during covid year
so maybe thats why
me over here as a business major knowing my hardest math class is like. calc 2 or multi.
I just had the best physics teacher to ever exist for AP phsyics c
god
i think calc 2 is the last math
im so jealous of all the business majors
i mean i fucking hate them no offense
but its cuz they have it so easy
ok yβall Iβm just gonna say itβs really not as bad academically as ppl say it is
iβm sure itβs difficult just not in the stem areas
my cousins professor bought them all lunch lol
nah not like that
i've had my day 1 brown boys go through scheller and share the experience
it's just different man
it's unfortunate
woo proud of my choice then
it's not necessarily easier, classes vary in difficulty heavily like any college
nvm just checked portal
Semifinalist status updates will be available on January 31, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. EST.
bru 10 am
there is a set time for stamps and gold
it's just the consistent work loads completely differ in weight, like cs majors be grinding projects and homeworks and shit all the time, not like that for business until you get to way upper divs
wtf that early
damn
lmao
honestly this is perfect for me bc i hate routine fr
you'll definitely get the time to appreciate campus and organizations and frats if ur into any of that
ππ the shade
how many credit hours are u taking this sem? @languid cedar @compact crater
if u can manage ur time and schedule ur classes properly youβll have enough time for social life
just talk w current students before u take 3 weed out classes in one semester
this is extremely premature of me but what dorms did yβall live in and how was it
yeah
I was in freeman then zbar then nave
def agree
everyone wants glenn/towers but those are gonna go so quick so i gotta be prepared for my next best
if u can room with an in state person u can get it
i am in state
my hs friend got towers doing that and Iβm from Cali lol
13 but that's cause I just transferred. I came in with 87 credits anyways so it's not the biggest deal i think
but i paid my deposit like a week ago
ok then if u submitted ur housing app by now u should be good
u good it was before all the OOS ppl could
Iβm doing 12 this sem
ah nice
is the standard 15 difficult at gt?
god damn
i mean my sister deadass takes 22 rn at uga but sheβs an art major so itβs not even work for her fr
first sem around 15 is ok
I did 15 first sem freshman year and it was pretty light so I bumped it up to 17
yeah I was taking 17 at uga at one point, it's not nearly as bad as 13 here lol
but I took hard classes so it was kinda rough
but also im just getting adjusted, change isnt easy
I also went to a competitive Bay Area hs so when I came to tech it actually felt easier for me ironically
