i got in YIPPEE!!
Accepted for cs after deferral
5th waitlist omegalul
waitlist
People who got in whats ur best ec

How many people do they waitlist
mine was a biology research internship and working as at a math tutoring business
is there a 28 accepted discord?
Same
CONGRATS ON EVERYONE WHO GOT IN!
Yea
is anyones portal still lagging
Same bro
could you dm the link please
Educational Equity Organization thingy
HOKIES
HOKIES

OMG GRATS EVERYONE
rejected๐
ACCEPTED
good luck kiddos
and congrats if y'all got accepted!
ANY NEURO MAJORS???
huh cant sent '28 disc
LETS GO CS 28 Iโm so hype
no neuro L
lemme see if i can send the discord
They donโt allow invites
There has gotta be someone
oh lmao ggwp
oh, how to get the invite then?
I just dmed u lol
waitlisted ga tech and cmu great
Dm me for an invite
Can you dm it to me! Much appreciated
first rejection baby
I got waitlisted from both too
Rejected Gt but got in USC ๐ญ
My last college is Princeton ๐
for gt waitlst are u supposed to submit a loci
upenn ๐
Did anyone get in with below a 3.8, curious
We don't talk about upenn
lol
is gt > ut for cs? or are they the same
Go GT fs! We on top frrrrr
GEORGIA IS MID
Did u get into gt?
waitlisted ๐
Gtech I believe
rip
^^
Anyone get in w a gpa below 3.8
But if your instate for one of those go to instate cuz both are good
does anyone know how many get in off of the waitlist or where to find those stats
HOKIES ARE BETTER
idk they're both ranked 8 for cs on usnews, id prob go with ut since its closer to home, idk how much greater gt is tho lol
there is a form within the waitlist
If your instate for ut go to that
how many students get off the waitlist
u can fill that up 500 words
wait how does waitlist work? is it first come first serve or is it predetermined lol
no idea but I saw waitlist I accepted it instantly in like 0.1 second
Sigh I got in
just to be safe ๐
such a drag
Lez go OOS CS
What was ur #1 ec
got edged ๐ญ
EA -> defer -> waitlist
same ๐ญ
so real
tbh i didn't think i was good enough to get waitlisted anywhere so thank you gatech you my bae
can someone poll it
there's already a poll
does anyone know how the Talent Initiative Pathway Program works????
im tryna see the results
idk how the waitlist goes but def write a good loci
ik a guy who got rejected by umich, then appealed and got the waitlist, then got in, he went to nyu anyways
robotics
they edging ur admission bro
around 30th in the world
about the same
imo choose the school you think you like more
USC and WashU did me dirty
istg, yall's extracurriulars are insane jesusssss
currently 3-2-3 on decisions
so unfortunate
wait how does continued interest statemebt on the ga waitlist work? does that mean the order hasnt been determined yet? how much does it improve your chance?
where have you gotten accepted
Was ur gpa 3.8+
Congratulations to those who got in! ๐ฅณ
drexel rit lafayette
nice
I also oos cs and mine was just teaching coding to kids
its now between purdue, umd, and virginia tech
Was ur gpa 3.8+
Are u in state for any?
I submitted 4.9 weighted, didnโt submit unweighted but it was like 3.96 or smth
me
gah damn
Deferred OOS Cs and got in. I thought it was over but we are so back
I got in for cs with a 1190 sat
nope, but i got in them
Idk how
"satellite" ๐
intl /1520 sat/ cs fall
lmao I forgot to send them a letter of rec
What major?
if i got waitlisted here is there really any chance for the ivy day
virginia tech for aerospace engineering, and mechanical engieering for umd and purdue, ill switch majors at these schools if i go
oh yeah
Yeah college apps are kinda random, I got wl at vt but got in gt
i'm getting into every ivy ๐ค
Iโd go vt (totally not biased ๐ญ)
so yes theres a chance
Oh for engineering Iโm p sure Purdue is cracked
damn i got rejected for cs with 1500, fortune 50 internship, and $250k startup ๐ญ๐ญ๐
cant wait to sweep up all the waitlists there โจ
Bro does not need college atp ๐
yeah from friend got rejected form umd instate but into northeastern
thats why im between those three
the best 3 on my list
Ainโt no way
Are you fr? >I might actually get in then
Yes dead serious
big W
BRO I GOT REJECTED AS THE DEVELOPER OF ONE OF LARGEST AI PROJECTS WHAT DIDN'T THEY SEE IN US
five colleges left to worry about now

Imma open my stuff at like 8 with my parents
did anyone here get in after being deferred
THATS GOOD!!
i got waitlisted from being deferred
bro got yield protected
i know people that did
Oh okay :--(
1460 sat
does out of state gtech cs defer->waitlist mean i'm a strong candidate
probably
does ga tech waitlist a lot people
def not as much as cmu lol
where do i find stats for how many ppl get off the waitlist
is the loci really needed? or does it not affect it that much
thats crazy can this be a 1250 year๐
everyone please don't go to gatech if accepted so i can get off of waitlist ๐ ๐
yes!
i had rank 2 at a competitive stem school, 4.0uw and 4.69w, and 16 aps too lol
What major?!
wait someone earlier said something about a loci but they say that they don't accept loci
what are acceptance rates by major
wait huh
oh, I am econ major tho
Guessing they just meant that statement
oh that thing
i dont wanna do it tbh lol
yeah i guess i wouldn't call that a loci, but that makes sense
anyone know accept'nge rates by major
maybe i can add like another ec but idk
does it actually affect what spot you get on the waitlist
they say they don't rank the waitlist
Did anyone get waitlisted for cs after being deferred
yeah i did
The pain 
today sucked ๐ฉ
had 4 wisdom teeth removed 6 hours ago
ig theres always grad school
I got double waitlisted ๐ญ
waitlisted intl for comp sci ๐
Same after being deferred ๐ญ
i did rd ๐
Now I have to do this waitlist form
Is there confetti
i have like 4 waitlists now ๐
Thereโs yellow jackets that fall
Oooh even better
ucla, uiuc, cmu, gt ๐
every good school is just waitlistin ๐
u get admitted to the school as a whole im pretty sure
yeah except cs im p sure
I donโt think he did โน๏ธ
fuck
๐
i know they start telling people they got in from the waitlist in like may, but if you don't get in do they tell you? or do they just say nothing
Usually they have a by the latest deadline
ok that makes sense
got waitlisted, F
what's the waitlist acceptance rate? i'll assume its low single digits
got into gtech
in the waitlist FAQ they say that some years they let a lot in from the waitlist and some it's very few
hmm
gratz
same
i woke up early just to check
i just woke up to 2 waitlists and a rejection
Hey guys is the Talent Initiative Pathway Program a guarantee transfer program?
I am literally like "oh there is confetti yay now let's go back to linalg"
time to go back to sleep ig
if i choose to write a loci i have no idea what im gonna put in it since i tried to mention a lot of things on my deferred form
rejected
yoo
is there a poll for this round?
are u still 96504c
me too lol
How'd you know?
i just checked our mutual serveres
Oh
Today is a sad day
indeed. no bees.
yes
why?
I got it and I wasn't sure if it was like those general transfer messages or a guaranteed transfer thanks
Check pins
Is there an admitted students server?
is it impossible to move to computer engineering
idt there is a restriction for compe
Congrats to everyone who got in!
u can email admissions about that
guys I just withdrew my gtech admission! i hope anyone on waitlist gets in!
thanks but how do you know
the post they made a few months ago about transfer restrictions only mentioned cs but not ce
is there a gt admitted server
okay thanks
accepted ladsssss
Is CS acceptance rate lower than normal engineering majors
Yeah I think so
got accepted EE intl student
CONGRATSSS
AHHHH
OMG YAY
YAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYA
STANFORD REJECTS UNITE

YAYAY THANK YOU
THANK YOU!!!
YAYYAYAYAYA YES!!!
ARE YOU GONNA GO TO GA TECH??
SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! GOOOD LUCK IN THE FUTURE ๐
Omg future classmate?!!!!
Iโm deathly afraid of bees
Why does the georgia tech mascot have to be a bee ๐ญ
I dont wanna reject a school because of its mascot ๐ญ
Probably going to commit here unless I get into an Ivy!!!
The oos tuition here is like actually reasonable and affordable
Yes these are my thoughts
Erm yellow jacket ackshually ๐ฅธ
(Theyโre worse than bees ๐ญ)
yup thatโs why theyโre my first choice rn
Whats the waitlist acceptance rate for cs?
I donโt know but also itโs probably going to be impossible to find out
anyone know the cs acceptance rate
Congrats to those of you who got in!
@rustic sandal Total CS applicants = 14941
Total CS accepted = 1696
CS acceptance rate for first-year applicants straight from high school is: 11.351315173%
Very very low
^ yea lol
yea u fcked lol
Rip
nvm this might be stats for the current first years lmao
anyone know what the different roomate amounts are
or is it only 1 roomate or can u do a suite style with 4 total people
u can do a suite style with 4 total people but the maximum size your roomate group can be is 2
so if you know all 4 people, you'll need to form 2 roommate groups and coordinate together
anyone can get a suite but if u want all 4 people to be together, yall just gotta coordinate when u choose ur rooms
yeah
Since roommate groups can only have 2 people (including u), you'll need to form 2 separate roommate groups. Suites have 2 rooms (each with 2 beds), so one roommate group will choose room A, and the other group should choose room B
if both groups have different time ticket for choosing housing, some other group might take the other room, but its kinda unlikely iirc
youll just have to plan around
lmao whyโd i get an email that my gt portal password is expiring
When does financial aid come out?
Anyone know of any BME specific scholarships I could apply for?
Or reach out about?
Does anyone know BME acceptance rate
they say they don't rank their waitlist but admit based on institutional needs?
what does that mean
Higher chance if ur an underrepresented demographic or underrepresented major
did anyone apply for llc
i did!! i was accepted to grand challenges and explore :) planning on GC
how mcuh time did u spend on the essays
like equal to a supp or wut, im tryna get a measure of how much effort i should put in
mine were equal to a short supplemental i would say, like less than 250 words. i recycled topics from other essays
also is explore only premed or is it just research emphasis
oh itโs for all the science majors so i would say research emphasis more than just pre med
but students say a lot of explore kids ARE also pre med
do u know if cs counts in this science sphere? on their website they have a little bullet point with majors but idk if thats the only allowed majors
any major can join explore, its just geared towards science majors
Does anyone have tips on additional info essay for waitlisted applicants?
Anyone know how I can get money
i didnt think it did, but i would check the website again, and if not, email the llc coordinator or housing manager (her name is allison) for more specific info
๐ค
dropship
What is this
How cracked do you have to be to get one of these big scholarships
does gtech send admission packages?
They send a letter on a nice piece of paper
this
do they send them to intls
my school is a few yrs deprived of gtech admits so I wanna give it to my school
yup
and the majority of us were waitlisted rip, I wonder what the chances are that one of the people in here will be one of the 50 that get off it
why don't they give us stickers
Doesnt it vary every year
Yo what is the GT cs acceptance rate for out of state
got deferred + waitlisted, no idea what I'm gonna write in my loci since I've been on summer break since late feb
do I just decline the waitlist offer since I have basically no material
idk but crazy low
Me too
i think ea 2 was just about 9%?
is that oos in general or for cs
idk about rd
in general
oh wow so gotta be significantly lower for CS
yea probably, idk for sure thoughhh
did any admitted get an email asking them to apply to the honors college?
anyone know how selective it is?
Yes I got this
And I am wondering the same thing
Does anyone know how hard it is to get the provost scholarship?? Or any sort of merit scholarship OOS that would be worth 10k
What do yall think the BME acceptance rate is also?
lol i was also BME
my guess is it would be middle of the engineering acceptance rate pile so like 12% based on what i saw on reddit for engineering average
GT honors college is a living learning community, not the traditional honors college btw. Look into it a bit more and see if the benefits are something u into
there is also the deans thingy. For me, the scholarships rolled out the week after the acceptance but I donโt think there are any u can apply to. If there are, someone pls let me know lmaooo
Could u share some of ur stats for how u got it
Do you think they would give any of these to someone who was admitted RD
forgive me but how is this any different than the honors college concept at schools like BU & NEU?
Iโm nothing crazy idk, my stats are just average
Same
How much did u get
I think some current students may be able to talk about this better but basically, itโs not like a โprestigious small group of people who are the best of the best in the universityโ kind of vibe but rather a living learning community where u can get additional support, live in apartment style housing, have sections reserved for honors students. The cons are that itโs much more expensive than normal housing.
Sorry I need a scholarship of 10k to be able to go
I got an instate waiver so roughly 20k ish?
Can I pm u more about this
Yea thatโs super valid, wait for a week ish and maybe try to email them and see if things can work out? Iโm super sorry, I heard that these public schools are stingy with aid OOS idk for sure though
No ur good
Tbh I went to campus and asked a few honors college students, many said itโs not worth it besides the better housing lol
varies between 50 and a 100 ๐
Really
They said between 50 and 1000 something right?
yes that's what they said
but look at the CDS for the last five years
they just say it to make us feel better, it's not realistic
F ๐ญ
my letter took a month to arrive
actually more like a month and a half
and it looked like it went through the wringer too all bent and stuff
Damn you got cooked
they did send nice stickers later though
What bruh how
i got a letter from my major (ECE)
Oh I see
with ece stickers and stuff
Whatโs with these insane cooldowns
๐คทโโ๏ธ yeah idk
CMU hater ๐ก
bro cmu did me dirty
Waitlist?
Literally so many ppl I know got waitlisted itโs insane. And they were freaking trolling with the release times/dates
they said it was coming out starting on friday, didn't give me a decision on friday (okay, fine, it's rolling, i accept that)
AND THEN
they didn't send me a single email about anything or even a single piece of communication afterwards, i got all of it from a2c (which is never a good sign)
AND THEN
friday in class i decide to open my cmu portal and there's just a decision there? at like 2:46 pm?? no warnings or email??
and i got waitlisted
Yep I hear ya it happened to so many people they are so rude for that
and apparently everyone got waitlisted on friday like what's the fucking point of having it be rolling if you're gonna release the acceptances immediately
so yeah i'm a cmu hater but congrats on getting in you beat the system lmaooo
Yeah idk how honestly ๐
don't question it
Yeah
We donโt have an honors college. We have an honors program. Anyone can take honors classes and has nothing to do with honors program. Most people say the big benefit of honors program is being able to get apartments as a first year (though u have to pay extra). Essentially itโs another LLC at tech
The name is kinda misleading
Itโs called honors program but isnโt really an honors program like youโd think
thanks for the info! that makes sense ๐
Hi hi for people who got into the talent initiative pathway program or experienced it, I have a question
So I take like 30 semester units, and lets just say the college's English Composition isn't transferrable and I end up having only 20 semester units transferrable. Will I get rescinded for Fall 2025?
Idk if it belonged to App Questions so I'm asking it here ๐ญ
Can I get the GT discord?
is this oos or aggregate
Agg
mods did you forget to turn off slowmode or something
Were u admitted? If so Iโll dm
Yes I was admitted EA.
can you dm too
i was admitted RD
nice, i've been looking for this data for a while. where is your source? and how much lower do you think the acceptance rate is for OOS?
A dashboard internal to gt
ah ok are you a student there?
I can make a guess at calculating - and yes I'm a student
I'll get back to you on that
OOS acceptance rate is usually massively lower than instate but generally the acceptance rate overall tends to be near the OOS acceptance rate due to the massive number of OOS applicants
if the acceptance rate was 11% expect maybe 8-9%
note that i am also just talkin out of my ass
You think it's lower for CS?
well, ofc it is but like how much lower
the 11% given is for cs specifically
The oos ea acceptance rate was 9% (across all majors) I assume rd is lower
Bc for most public schools rd is harder
no actually, RD tends to have a higher acceptance rate than EA due to no defers
Really? Interesting
also a higher rejection rate for that matter but... ya know.
anyone applying for an llc?
congrats ๐
does anyone know how many applicants usually get the transfer pathways?
but instead of defers they got waitlist now right? how does that make a difference?
Because more people get deferred than they get waitlisted
oh gotcha
Hi, you are current gt student? i wonder the dorm is guarenteed for 4 years or not?
after ur first and 2nd year, on campus apartments are pretty competitive to get
upperclassmen housing filled up in like 25 seconds after the application opened and waitlists are like in the 1000s (from last month so waitlist prob went down a good bit)
shows demand for on campus housing by class level and shows total supply
Thank you so much!
yeah im currently 361 on the waitlist its sorta cooked ๐
Guys would I matter from housing piv if I commit and pay the deposit today or a in about a couple weeks?
if ur freshman u will get housing i dont think you need to worry about that
What is the transfer acceptance rate
wait do the dorm spots fill up fast
cuz i still havent committed to gt yet cuz im waiting for the fin aid package
the good dorms yea but dorms in general no. all freshman are guaranteed housing.
how much different are the good dorms?
Do u have a good chance transferring into GT if u got waitlisted this year?
Not different in terms of size or amenities just newer buildings
Do they even read it?
The waitlist isnt ranked right so they would only take who they need regardless of how good a loci is right?
i guess
also depends on availability, if they get more enrollments then obviously they're barely going to take people off the waitlist
hello does anyone know how is the Summer iGniTe Program and the First-Year Semester Abroad Program at Gtech
does saying you want to participate in it boost your chances of getting out of the waitlist?
idk
i really dont know if I should do a LOCI since i actually have no idea what id put in it
i got in to gatech for math can i double major math/cs
I donโt think u can switch into cs
Doesnโt Math have that exception or smt? Idk if u gotta start with CS or Math
all of the double majors ik were first cs
not sure if that means only cs can double major into math but yeah
I turned down GT today hope one of ya'll gets in off the waitlist
thank you i hope that person is me
no its gonna be me actually
@steep quartz do u know anyone that got off GT CS waitlist
Hi can anyone share GaTechs server link?
DMed !
Iโve never asked
I probably know somebody but like this isnโt something that comes up in conversation lol
does agreeing to this help to get off the waitlist
well true
or any other GT student here do u know about those programs / about the waitlist
Sorry man I got no idea about the waitlist ๐
Can someone send me the gt discord link
.gg/gt
funny enough i got in but still have (Houston, we have a problem.) so prp these things don't mean anything
we're twins
Two tomatoes
Gt compe or upenn compe?
Upenn compe lowkey looks mid compared to gt but idk
Gt better than Penn for stem
Congrats on everyone committing GT ๐ฅฒ itโs beautiful
upenn because i want to get off of the gt waitlist 
gt is ranked 3 in the country for engineering
Ion get aid so im still out to gt I think
Yeah gt definitely
Ivy League brand is not worth 40k extra, especially if it isnโt even better for eng
What you guys think between Duke CS, GT CS, and UIUC CS?
#954425230896545792
GT and UIUC > Duke.
Between them, choose the cheaper option, because at that point, theyโre practically equally ranked education
agreed. but I think you also have to factor in the location lmao
georgia tech is pretty cheap for being in the middle of the city amidst the tech hubs too
but uiuc, duke have somewhat better reach on the software side, like the fang companies are closer to them compared to gt
Guys, BME for premed, gt, nyu, bu, umass amherst. Which should i choose?
I also have purdue offer, already declined.
GT ๐ซ๐ซ๐ซ๐๐๐
thanks!
I think gt is best for bme too but also ask in school x vs y
if uiuc is better for software side is gt better for hardware side?
uiuc is known for their systems curriculum. gt is known more for ai. UIUC and GT have comprable ECE curriculums.
Nah I mean they have software companies closer, GT is better for software
UIUC is good for hardware as they stated
i thgouht uiuc is middle of nowhere LOL
what companies are close to it
Yeah but like a while away are large tech companies, can't give you exact names but yeah. Google companies in Chicago
icic
guys what tech companies are in gt
like uw has amazon microsoft boeing
california has hella tech
but what about atlanta
itnel
gatech cs vs uw engineering undeclared (will have to transfer into cs second year with 33% admit rate, anecdoets on reddit say its pretty easy to get in just need to maintain >3.0 gpa)?
GT has tech square where a bunch of companies are
Also a crap ton of companies come to Atlanta because of GT
but doesnt udub have more
Gt better
Gt cs career resources are crazy
They said that the cs career fair is held in Mercedes Benz stadium cuz of how big it is
no not easy
if you were offered a pathway it is easy because it is literally guaranteed
otherwise its just like normal admissions
oh youre talking about UW lmao
well obviously i am biased to GT
any GT CS folks willing to look over my LOCI? I want to ensure its fully refined before submitting it
ur not allowed to guarantee transfer for pathway for cs
yep completely forgot about that
itโs literally for anything but cs lol
they changed that this semester
iโm in the same boat so ima plan to transfer in for compe
just a warning in case you dont know but compe is absolutely nothing like cs, its essentially ECE
yea ik lol
cool cool, just sayin cuz i see some people with misconceptions go into compe thinking theyre gonna be coding ๐
nah compe is essentially firmware and hardware shit along w reverse engineering no?
a thing i donโt understand tho is why chemistry is a requirement for compe lol
When do waitlist decisions come out?
guys is the waitlist submission due tn by 12:00am 4/5 or tmr 11:59pm 4/5 ๐ฉ๐ฉ
Tomorrow I imagine
thanks
wait but you will be coding if you take cs heavy threads right
anyone know if saying youd do iGniTe ans study abroad increses chance off the waitlist
early may
yep it is, was tryna see the CDS from last yr and the website wasn't loading lol
Aight so definitely commit to a different school and forget about GT then lmao.
Well you would have to commit to another school bc it will probs come out after the deposit deadline, but I wouldn't forget abt it bc there is def hope ๐
Nah my LOCI was so goof lmao. Itโs my last time yapping for college admissions, I thought Iโd go out with a bit of a bang. Itโs not gone get me rejected, just made some pretty bad jokes throughout the whole thing
And as yall know, jokes are a criteria for admissions.
LOL, do you mind if I could see it?
is the gt waitlist ranked
hey guys do georgia tech students refer to themselves as yellow jackets or sm else
please answer quick yall
no
yeah
Is the Georgia tech application portal not working๐ญ
I need to submit my loci, 3 hours left for my timezone๐ญ
uh I heard that some gt websites (not the portal) are down
but Iโd email it if you canโt get in
Ok yeah now itโs working
If a waitlist is not ranked then does the loci matter
I got deferred then waitlisted so idk what to put on my loci ๐ญ
What timezone are you in
For me the deadlines already gone
Not sure but theyโve said that the loci is the only thing theyโll review, nothing else
I already sent mine ages ago
There was a dsf form for deferred students also so i didnt really put much
Is anyone else still waiting for the estimated financial aid offer
Still havenโt heard back from them yetโฆ
me neither
๐ญ
daily reminder that if ur not going to gtech pls decline ur admission lol (especially for cs)
Should I apply for honors at GTech because I donโt want any more hard classes then I really need to. And I feel like I wouldnโt get in
honors does absolutely nothing
it gives you one residence hall that isnt even all that
anybody can take "honors classes" its not an honors program thing
Whatโs ur opinion on grand challenges?
no idea, im a transfer
wdym by good?
Yall get that email from GT about the waitlist? Apparently there are 4,470 people on the waitlist ๐
Also is there a date by when theyโll tell us that theyโve closed the waitlist?
i thought they already closed the waitlist
Pretty close to last year
0.8% chance is crazy
basically the same as CMU
yeah i got scared ๐
it's gonna be me i can feel it
Why bother waitlisting that many then lmao
Same lmao. Dunno why Iโm getting hyped up, if I canโt get into schools with a 4% acceptance rate I sure as hell ainโt pulling the 0.8% one lmao
they need to feel the power
you got this ๐ซก
is it hard to sign up for faset or smth?
why there a whole like section for it ๐
no it isnt youre chill
Aigh word
Is there anyone planning to do the talent transfer?
When do RD llc results come out
Should I try and contact the admissions office and demonstrate interest in any way further than submitting a LOCI, currently waitlisted and would love to go
I think the LOCIโs all you can really do
any current students here know anyone who got off of the waitlist
my friend in same school turned down her offer for gt (going to harvard), should I do something? other than the LOCI on the portal.
What does this even mean ๐ญ
why would your friend turning down gt mean anything for you
usually with waitlists don't they try to replace the person who didn't commit with someone on the waitlist that's similar in demographics?
like if we're both same school same major
no. waitlist admits are a black box. nobody knows how they work except the admissions committee. i will tell you for sure though that your school has nothing to do with it. your major, maybe, but then youre competing with the thousands also on the waitlist.
i see, well we are also the same major but I've decided to just not to do anything but wait
up
Gtech or Berkeley! Canโt decide
If cost is not an issue, Berkeley.
Berkeley might be the move just because it has the prestige and proximity to SV. Honestly, you can't really go wrong.
look at the curriculum, look at the clubs, look at the location
choose for yourself what is best for you
GATech by far had the best curriculum for me
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of the threads. I think it forces you to take classes in another area rather than delving even deeper into a singular area. But all GT classes (probably less for intelligence due to large volume) are probably top-notch. There is not really a person who you can find that say they're underprepared for industry after GT.
As a transfer student, much the other way around imo. generally the threads you take complement each other and build atop each other, especially if you already have a plan for what you want to do. there is SO much flexibility in terms of classes and electives you can take in each thread towards your degree. I also think that a little bit of structure goes a long way, and i believe threads is just the right balance
thats just my opinion though
Whatโs your major
Meche
Berkeley holy shit
Regents is soooo cracked stamps is good too but I think being in bay area is super awesome as well
Ok thank you!
since you are a transfer student , can i get advice on something
ga tech compE (transfer pathway) or gastate all 4 years for cs
i plan to get into quant development
never been to UGA and didnt do pathway so i cant say for sure, but if those are your two options i assume you are instate and if so, I say go for the pathway since both offer you similar financial plans (?) and gatech is huge if you want to go into quant
i am also biased btw this was my dream school since high school so like yeah
so i can still be swe quant ?
as compE , ik compE is ee+ cs
and i heard i could do software concentrations
i'm going for compE and if you are choosing the most software-y threads, then you might only have to take 5-6 electrical engineering classes
Switching to compe kinda looks nice rn
Hi, any cs majors willing to answer a few questions in dms? I wanna learn a bit more abt the experience, thx in advance :)
sure
Gatech stamps!!!!
sure
Hello
I got accepted into the Georgia Institute of Technology and wanted to see how easy it is to switch or add majors. Like is it easy to add a Physics major, Chemical Engineering major, Public Policy major, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, or Computer Engineering? Is it easy to switch to these majors or is it competitive? As I saw on the website there are certain classes and GPA requirements you need, but if you do that are you guaranteed admission to these majors or not? So sorry to trouble everyone here.
Transferring into any major except ID, CS, Mech E, and IE is pretty simple
Youโll prob have to take a semester of classes in your admitted major and then meet with an advisor from the major you want to switch into
If it isnโt one of the above ones itโs relatively smooth
What about Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Chemical Engineering or Public Policy?
AE chem e and pubp are pretty smooth
Comp e advisors take forever but once the ball gets rolling itโs also smooth
Nobody ever switches into my major
Which major are you in?
MSE
Bruh ur gonna have to retake the compe version of 2200๐ญ
thats the only reason im prob not
Based
realistically sysarch/cyber for cs and sysarch/cyber for compe are like the same classes
are u in daglis or nah
Yea
atleast its over lol
Do you think I should attend Gtech or UIUC or Boulder or Purdue? I'm so confused but I'm leaning heavily towards Georgia Tech
Gatech
Obviously weโre gonna say GT
Is that Material Science Engineering?
Did bro think we would say any of the others ๐ญ
what major did u come in as
Yes (MSE stands for most sexy engineers)
Nuclear Engineering
oh shit
Fireball
No way ๐ญ bro could picked anything he picked NRE
rare pick
I know one nre major
Becuase at gtech it's ranked number 2
But I want to switch to Aerospace Engineering
theres like 2 nukes ive met
I mean all our engineering programs are top 5 except mine which is 6th
Also are you allowed to Double major at GTech?
depends what major
Iโm a double major
Like if I say dropped my current major then do Aerospace Engineering and Chemiceal?
And how many minors can you do? If so is it easy to declare a minor?
lowkey that sounds rough
Yo do NOT DO THIS SHIT
Yeah I'm just so confused honestly what I want to do
AE is already like 130 ch+ lmao. idk if theres overlap between the 2 either
DO NOT DOUBLE MAJOR TWO ENGINEERING DEGREES
But I think I'll do one major only
not sure if theres a limit in minors, but i think the process to apply is simple?
SOUNDS GOOD, I'm so done studying
Bro picked the two hardest engineering degrees to want to double major this is crazy
So you can switch majors pretty easily from any college at georgia tech pretty much?
I donโt know anyone w more than 2
CS is blocked but aside from that yea
Theyโll look at u funny if u do it more than twice
I don't wnat to do CS
Rare
Lowkey MSE might be for u
YES I MAY CONSIDER THAT
Do a more general engineering major like MechE than something more niche like BME, Aero, NukeE, etc
U like glass or metal or semiconductors or plastic or cloth or concrete
YES I LOVE GLASS
Well but I got off waitlist at Gtech today I knew and theres some study abroad program I have to do for a semester then I start in Spring
Gatech
wait TODAY?
goddamn that's early
YES, could I by chance forward you the email to see? Or show a picture of it, you might be familiar with it?
And thank you grammarly
oh shit congrats
As a gt student I hate when ppl call it gtech its an extra letter to call it by its god given name gatech
Yeah, spelling isn't my thing
this is so real
Btw what's the mascot for gatech
a yellow jacket and a car
Big Booty Buzz
He threw his stinger back on me at a baseball game the other day I damn near started throwing dollars
lol
So all in all how have you liked your experience at Gatech
There is an immense amount of doomer attitude at this school but honestly once you find ur niche and stop taking everything so god damn serious itโs rlly fun
What is your other major on top of Materials Science Engineering?
Chemistry
Thanks for your help bro
OMG YES PLS THANKS
okay but like who calls it gatech tho
like...its gt or georgia tech (they don't use gatech ever? i think?)
can i focus on software in compE
Thatโs possible yeah
yeah but gatech > gtech
you choose 2 threads for compe
GT
For sure
Cuz dragon ball GT
Like literally though everyone has committed to where they're going to go
Except for me
compE but focusing on software threads
https://catalog.gatech.edu/programs/computer-engineering-bs/#threadstext
these are ur options
thx
more info for each thread specifically here tho

Could i ask which major?
I couldn't sign up for the study abroad program cuz of the age
lol
im taking it next semester
well, 2200, not the compe version
why is 2200 required for modsim i dont understand ๐
it should be required for every thread tbh
nuh uh
lowkey 2200 content is pretty valuable
class structure was kinda ass tho this semester ๐ญ
my friends in it this semester and ive taken a look at his stuff
looks absolutely horrendous, opposite of what i want to study in CS ๐
also that "hybrid" class structure BS is so stupid
yep :|
at least u get forsyth exams
