boo
for the record i have seen that page a couple of times before like even the first
like when i would hit the wrong byutton
wdym
why did gatech just send me a random email 😭
my application was received a week ago 5head
Yeah I got that a bit ago as well haha
Trust me it ain’t worth waiting
This is the worst period: just waiting for admission
Coincidentally I am also waiting: waiting for winter break 😋
are you just saying to just show up now or like ?
i was just saying if it aint worthing waiting what we do now
Enjoy ur life lil bro
thats fair
i thought you were going to say something deeper
I was in your shoes last year and it’s not worth it
I mean I could
Yall can ask me any questions abt GT
Ain’t no way
I will say that most oos decisions are the last Friday of January
Now it’s time for housing
I hate housing
It sucks because if you don’t get the top 2 houses you may not vibe with it
is housing worth it? gt is only 20 mins away from home, and im debating whether to dorm or commute
If you cannot afford housing then commute
But if you can dorm here
Commuting may be the worst choice you could make
yeah im worried about missing out
You would be missing out
Lots of weekend fun things
Homecoming for example was very fun
ou okay thanks for the insights!
Np
For dorms we got housing on West and East campus, if you want to join a frat, go to more parties and be closer to classes, East is best. If you like working out at the gym and really close to the (arguably) better dining hall, then West Campus is a better quiet lifestyle
how much better is the food
I mean you won’t be eating good anywhere unless ur at UCLA or UMass Amherst
The food isn’t as bad as it was a long time ago
Oh u mean from east to west
is that worth it
Negligible
Honors isn’t honors
You have a forced living situation and you get better class picks
That’s it
So you’d get better registration (which is hella scuffed btw, I am picking my classes on Friday and am hella nervous) but you get slim pickings for roommates
did you do any programs or std housing
i got that too lol
STD housing… 👀
like 2 weeks ago
U mean a frat house?
i meant like honors or any of the leearning communities
Nah
I’m doing frat housing next year cuz GT sucks
Also another thing
You don’t get dorms second year and above
You either do on or off campus GT apartments
Which is hella expensive
Which is why we have a lot of people joining Greek life
like not guarenteed
or like not avail
Oh
Glad u asked
It’s a lottery system now!!! Yay… 😀
For GT apartments
They have no GT second year dorms like they do at most schools
i figured it out
i just clicked the wrong button
does gt give good merit or na
like i saw that they did give some and had to like fill out an application but
@slow crow thanks
im going back to the homework i tried to start an hour ago
im going to commit to gtech for sure if i got i n
so like whats the best housing to do
cause i heard gtech doesnt have the best dorms 😭
The dorms aren’t awful but the worst ones are bad. Just pray you get Glenn or Towers
If not then do Fitten Freeman or Montag
Heard honors apartments were pretty good
Can u apply for honors now
no you gotta get accepted first
I'm 99% sure at least
sounds good
Yeah 👍
lol my throat is starting to hurt
Do schools really have their own diseases
fancy seeing you here lol
If I end up going to gt then yeah I'm definitely going for honors
rip apparently there was a typo in my essay
Keep in mind you will have little choice in who you get as a roommate
wait gatech evaluates applicants by region right?
I mean probably, there are some real dumbasses at this school oos in niche locations
like you're mostly compared to kids in your region for admission or something
Yeah
If I didn’t live where I did I probably would be rejected
I'll risk it lol
Good thing is that you get better class selection
honestly i know ten kids who got into GT CS last year and most of them chose UT over it but
my ut app is shit
Bruh don’t ask me for advice
lmao
I’m chbe
yeah fair
CS is 100% more cooked
Just successfully registered for my classes 🙏🙏🙏
what the acceptance rate for instate ea1
i saw it was 40 but idk if that includes deferred and then accepted kids
i saw 33% somewhere
🙏 ur instate too right
yep 🙋
hope/zell clutch 🙏
Me too stop some shit is lowk going around
Do you know any nukes at tech
NRE is like the smallest major 😭
Pretty sure a lot switch out after their first year
There’s like only 10 third years or something
yea
❤️
the problem with nuclear is that its so specialized so yeah a lotta people switch
i think this is partially just my personal beliefs/philosophy on how engineering ought to work
so no hate meant towards nuke engg
fr
sometime january prolly
We don’t know, historically it’s the last Friday of January
That’s what it’s been for the last two
oh alright thanks
btw, whats ur experience in GT chemE so far? thats what i applied for...
I selected yes for FYSA...has anyone done it?
Oh! Awesome! (There are no chemes here)
It’s good so far
Classes are very hard and they won’t get easier from here
i mean like specifically at gt
yeah i did
Think they mean they selected it 😂
🤦♂️
at least the competition for gt not too bad
Wdym 
that reading comprehension i just witnessed 💀
bro 😭
do u not remember we were talking yesterday in #🌻-app-questions
about the # of colleges i was applying to
okay okay
i'll be prepared
I know ppl that do FYSA
My advisor did FYSA and honestly a summer semester abroad is probably better
You kinda trade off a fun experience in Europe for your first semester in college, meeting new ppl, and watching the football games
Hmm ok
Ig I can opt out later asw
I mean u can
But you should really decide before housing forms start to open
If you don’t do your housing form as early as possible you can get screwed
but that would be after i get accepted right?
Yes
Yes
But if ur OOS I think the only merit they have is stamps???
im instate
Q. How easy is it for engineering freshmen to register the required courses? Is it like other state schools with mostly full class and full waitlist?
Yes
You’ll get 8 ams for your first two semesters
ty. what about the dorms? specifically, are the good dorms filled up by upperclass or freshmen?
No upperclassmen dorms
I got all of my classes but I had to tank some 8:30s 💀 if you have a lot of credits u might get luckier tho
Bruh that sucks
I had Lin alg as my 8:30 😭
Oh I have that rn
Do u have the good professor?
does gtech offer special admission to oos
like i heard they let u do 1 year else where and fulfil x courses
and garuntee admission to gtech after that
yea
guarenteed transfer
they do it for instate too iirc
my friend did it
he did his first year at stony brook and then transferred w/ guanreteed stransfer
idk 
ik they offer it to a not small ammount of ppl
oh
do u hv to req for it?
or its offered only
idk
prolly ont he website somewherp
look up guarentteed transfer
Less common than acceptance
I think it’s like 2%
So technically 11-12% are accepted, 9% are accepted as they would like though
they offer it alot to instate i heard
Yes they do
like 30% or something
Yes
fireeee
see i love doign hardware but i also wanna do stuff with coding
like i want to do somethign with control theory but its a bunch of math
i loveee robots
yea i toured and i really liked the facilities and campus
Oh that’s awesome
Ur instate im assuming
yurp
Fun
pls do not cook me
im so nervous my UGA decision comes out on friday and if i dont get in im cooked for the rest of my targets/reaches 😭
loool
gt beating miami saved my week
Trust in yourselves
yooo same
I heard that GaTech CompE has a fab lab that Stanford students envy
cs is cooked 🥱
may the a2c gods let both of us in

My kid (oos) didn't get into GaTech last year. It's one school that I was willing to pay full price out of pocket. Good luck to you both!
I can approve saying ECE is 10x better than cs
Hardware is just way more interesting than software
thank you!!
agreed i love hardware
cs is cooked thats why 😭
Actual CS major saying this is unfathomably based
i originally was gonna do mechE but i have a bunch of coding experience + i like the integrated part of it
its worth frfr
Yeah I do both eng stuff and CS stuff like app dev
So I was like “why not do a mix”
exactly
I'd be happy with any one of the 3
oh in fact, she got in one of the 3. but decided not to because of cost
lol i kinda lost interest in doing purely software. so im doing BS CS + MSE minor into MS ECE
im praying for aid
top 3 for rn is uiuc purdue gtech
CompE is rough
all 3 are state schools. no aid of us (oos)
Elec E too
bro chemE is prob even rougher 😭
darn i forgot purdue is pub
EE is really hard i heard
This class I’m in rn I need an 85 or above on the next test to comfortably pass and I’ve never gotten over a 73 on a test in that class
what class 😭
Computing for engineers
An EE advisor said average gpa was slightly below 3.0
Do you know the nuke GPA?
bruh when are they gonna announce their decision releases
idk but a random source online says 3.2. not sure how they calculated that tho lol
Cooked …
gg
ong bro
Is it not on the portal
no it is not
unless it is
EA 1 supposedly comes out soon


Business LOL
Nice
Dyk anything abt the business program at GT?

Lmfao
Having that many is a red flag
W first two options in your nickname
3 option is 🤮
(jk)
i just have beef with them cuz of their tuition
i think i care about gatech most, then uiuc
but that's just arbitrary
because im more familiar with gatech
U instate?
Gotcha
and i toured
its a beautiful campus
idk how to explain it
but it has a suburban vibe in an urban setting
Nah but building is nice
Yeah that’s why I like it
btw how cold does it get up there in the north?
How much worse is RD cs acceptance
What do you think 🤔
It’s already low to begin with
Worse but does it still make sense applying rd
its one essay tbh
are you in or out of state
No difference really
wtf
It’s not bad
nah georgia is too cold for me
where do i go
Bruh that’s sweater weather
Wait bruh u asked me how cold it was in the north
for me it is
yes 🪗
🌪️💨⛈️ does this scare u
nah thats light work
Intl
I know I had some emergencies in october and only got one school done
I didn't feel like giving a mediocre application for the rest of the schools
ain't no way 💀
50s/60s is pretty awesome running weather
Valid
Man if you think Georgia is bad, if you applied to any Northeastern area schools you will freeze to death
even VA which isn't that north can get pretty awful in december
I'm glad people here also like CompE haha
Feels like all my stem friends are going into cs and I don't get it
Literally I would die for that
Had to run in 27 today and my hands were dying
ur the only sane one then
fr?
theres a high 49 on friday and im in georgia
broward?
It’s the same here
damn lol
bro i swear bro
georgia weather
is so bipolar
Oh fck ive never experienced such cold
No
it is NOT that cold
crazyyyy
No not that one
good luck georgia residents 🫡
Early Action 1 (aka Georgia residents EA)
Confirmed as December 6
When using historical data, the release time in your time zone will likely be:
<t:1733529600:F>
oh wait thats for georgia residents 😔 got me hype too damn
ea1 🙏
good luck to yall either way
If it were Dec 6, it would give them 4 days to review for the NC gremlins 💀
wait why
Emergency deadline extension
ah
this is the in state one right
Yep
Out of state should be late January
I never locked in a guess but UIUC confirmed Friday January 31st for them so Georgia Tech has a solid chance of following along with the other January public’s
Earliest it’ll be is the Friday before
I’ve noticed tech has a habit of posting their date on their website approximately two weeks ahead of time
Bc today is two weeks on the dot and last year I pinged at the 12 day mark
shittt
You doubted me
No but earlier
There was someone here who was sus of my guess
Oh rip
damn baited me
i almost had a heart attack
then i realized i am not from georgia
getting rejected either way
DECEMBER 6TH?
WHA
BRO
PLEASE
AFTER WINTER BREAK
let me enjoy in peace bro
😭 🙏🏿
let me enjoy my india trip first
didnt say dec 6th
is ea release
oh
OHHH
thank you
phew
😭
i had like hella tests that week too
gg
My guess is January 31st
It’s usually the last Friday of January tmk
Also UIUC alr confirmed that date and a lot of the public EAs like to release together
If it’s not the 31st it’ll be the 24th
I doubt another date
I’m going to try and make an obsidian canvas of decision dates
RIP I wish it were EA2
Real men will realize that patience is a virtue and not open their decision until April 30
Yield protect trust
how does gatech's phy program keep up with uiuc?
Yield Protection🫡
anyone went to the army zoom meeting today
Ngl the more I look into some of the ee labs at GTech I get more excited
I have a q to current engineering students. What % of your class do you think came with AP Calc BC and AP Physics C transfer credits? I know there's no official stats. So asking for your guess. Under or over 20%?
I feel like over 50% for ap calc bc like maybe 20-30% for ap physics c?
ty
Idk how accurate this is
Nah I feel like no one has C credit
Most ppl I know either test out or take it again
ty
when is ea2 for gtech
end of jan
damn opposite for me
me 2
7pm now
check their insta
i was confused because i never remembered it being 4 lol
I’m in pacific time so it’s at 4 here
It’s funny bc on the calendar for predicted I got it correct for the RD ones
Idk why EA was off
Ty
guys umm i forgot to submit my sat scores and i jsut did it today
gtech's website said that the deadline to submit all required documents was 11/18
am i still good?
I think for scores it's Jan 6
alr ty
dang
these deadlines are
interesting
that prolly means they dont even review apps until jan 6th?
cause i believe gtech is test required
from my understanding
they will admit people that are clear with whats avail
like if you have all your stuff in they will put in pile
then if its unclear they look again after your test is in
if no test score can save you you are then put in no pile
@gaunt geyser
oh
interesting
oh well i already put in my test scores 3 weeks ago
so
🙏🏿
i didnt add the last step sorry
basically they then look at the admitted students
if its more then they want they like re-review and figure it out
oh naw
💀
basically
i coulkd be in the admitted file
and swapped out for another student
ya
💀 💀 🙏🏿
good thing i dont see that
or whoever i got swapped out for would be my worst enemy
but basically gt might not work like that but like thats my guess
💀 💀
from hearing yale admisisons podcast
are yall oos
each college diff
yeah
at the bare miniumum they like do a first read thing and then wait
💀
proly
deadtime with the applications is just stupid
the ac dont want to pull like 80 hour weeks because they set test deadline late
if that was the case they would make it doc deadline
like u get what im saying
yeah
prolly they have lower chance or some
not sure
who knows
yeah
n i
not lower chance
but they dont just say a lets look at these nerds later and get back to the,
yay
damn fr? I was under the impression most people at tech took c in HS
Nahh
Cuz u need to take calc then physics
Also yall would be surprised the amount of dumb mfs that are admitted to tech (me included)
lol. are u instate?
No
I'm not too bummed if i (likely) get rejected cz i have some rly good options lined up
Albeit outside the US
In my school you take both simultaneously
i took phys one last year
snd then taking phys c and calc bc this year
Phys 1 is unnecessarily hard
I was under the impression that gt oos students r all sweats like the Sajjad guy
But he got in for CS so that makes sense
💀
tbh sajjad's profile probably outclasses that of a lot of gt cs students
guy got into EECS at berkeley
who dat
who did you have
I meant in HS I’m taking it next semester
you mean compared to CalTech🤔
I mean idk
I would say so
We have a good deal of school spirit relative to others

Like today is our biggest game
just kidding
And we (ARE) a football school


To hell with Georgia
this aged so well
if i get in i might get good seats n shit with ROTC
i think they open the games or smth
If we could convert better
Lol
Are you at the game?
It’s a Georgia home right
So prolly not so friendly stands
I am not at the game
I won’t but I mean…
Aged like milk
Genuinely
Horse collar is crazy
Not looking good for Georgia
Okay lmao
Do not say ANYTHING about the game until it’s over
Just watch and enjoy
^^^
LOCK IN
keep in mind this happened Georgia vs Alabama
Georgia has insane clutch factor
lol
Don’t say anything.
Lock. In.
LMAO
._.
Bro what just happened 😭😭
Overtime.
3OT
So they didn’t get the extra point
What happened
bro what is happening
im not even watchign the game and my friends are spamming me about it
40-40
Yes sir
WAIT THEY GOTTA LOCK IN NOW
LOCK IN
Yes sir lock in
imagine this game is what gets us into gtech 😭
LMAO
BRO MY INTEENRT IS ASS I CANT EVEN WATCH
LMFAOOOO
ROLL TECH
Nah what
nah 6ot is wild
i love priated streams
Yo
is gonna get his scholarship revoked
that duude
is gonna get his scholarship revoked
Lmao
LMAOOO
HOLY FUCK
LOL
Tech I’m taking your scholarships away if u sell this
Welp
NOOOOOOO
I’m happy they lost cause now UIUC has most records for OT still
Illinois Penn State
Yep
Dammmm
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
9OT 😭
holy crap bro
what a game
Fuck man
okay uga deferred me gt also cant defer me right
I got to unreal in Fortnite during this game
LMFAO
I was actually about to kms during this game
same
I don’t even WATCH FOOTBALL and I was dying
SAME
is georgia tech's math department good
i saw a lot of people complaining about its math and pure science depts online
Yeah it sucks
They don’t teach you
Linear and calculus are very difficult
And you can’t understand half of the professors (which is unfort)
I get flashbacks thinking about linear
Lmao that's kind of surprising
How bad is the weather in Atlanta
That's like the one thing I'm hesitant on with GTech
oh damn decisions come out in a week for in staters thats kinda crazy ngl
I live in NC and its pretty nice year round so I doubt its much different in Atlanta
Oh ok good to know
For some reason whenever I think of Atlanta I imagine it blisteringly hot
worst you get it maybe an inch or two at max of snow
it’s a coin flip
one day it’ll be incredibly cold and one day it’ll be hot
not even 2, just one inch
Worst? - that's the best case scenario
Good to know haha
So it'll just be like where I currently live
apply more north gang atleast VA or higher
past few years the days leading up to christmas would be incredibly cold, and then christmas day it’s a nice 70 degrees outside
I am, most of my colleges are north of VA
I think Duke and GTech are my only ones that aren't
💀
can confirm in NC I think we had a random 75 degree day this past week
hi chatt
its so cold rn in ga
weather here is super bipolar
nahhh idk what ur in about
dang it no image perms
34 degrees 🔥
yes bro
Bad first two weeks of school and it’s bad once in a while in the winter
Isn’t December 6th ea1
Prob mid to late janurary
Not sure it isn’t confirmed yet
You okay bro?!
ill only lose sleep the night before 😭
💀
really praying on that if rn
manifesting it
in state?
yes
nah u gotta be more positive
i posted the tech football barstool post on my story so u guys better accept me
im tryna slide on ATL
I manifested and look where I am
should i update gtech that i got gates scholarship semifinalist even if ea1 decisions are coming out this friday the 6th?
decisions for gt or scholarship
gt
Congratulations
prolly not, im not sure how it works but i think they probably already have your results
yessuh 🙂↕️
never in my life would i have thought i would be happy in atl
i swear i keep nervously checking my portal
🙏
in state?
duh
girl ive never been so nervous before
me 2 twin
Pretty sure they don’t
Yeah I don't think public schools in general do
me toooo
me 222
u got this I believe in u
bro im ea2 and i already feel the stress
i literally cant sleep its so over
welcome to my world
thats been me since august
#twins
#twinn
twin bitches hopping off a jet ski
top 3 utopia song
its lit 🗣️🗣️🗣️
are you in gt math
thats the only thing distracting me rn 😭
n
na
isnt that a atlanta only thing
or georgia
i go to school in tennessee but live in ga
bro lives out in the sticks 😭
man GT math is so cool
i wish we had it here
UT math 🔥
also isnt GT math year 2 like auto accept for GT
dead ass i do
day 193991020 of dooming
Why tho?
I mean I've never met someone who's been rejected
ey maybe I can break the trend 🙏
year 1 is linear algebra and calc 3
year 2 is combinatorics and diffy q
ohhhh
ok
that’s actually way better wtf
linalg should absolutely be taught before DE and MVC
honestly linalg should be taught before normal calculus
they make it mad easy for us
our exams are like half the difficulty of the actual gt exams
i think we're doing multi before lin
linear can burn in hell
but ye its a prereq for both calc 3 and diffy q here
boutta take the lin alg final tomororw
wish me luck
do you guys know how it is usually
what's the decision date for georgia tech EA2 (out of state)
is it written somewhere
ur prob fine. 80%+ of DE linear finish with A's
the final average when i took on campus linear last sem was a 60
It’s hella curved tho
My friend failed every final and ended up with a C
I can definitely pull together a B
im cooked
its mad easy
its way easier than on campus
about as difficult as your normal exams
just make sure you know how to do svd and the standard other frq questions and you'll be fine
Oh shi ok bet
Thanks
Is there actually a curve on this
We haven’t had any curves so far
yea no curves
Ok
if you do the cios the requirement for an A drops to a 89 though
and with extra credit you can fall to an 87 and still get an A
yessir
i was like 0.5 away from a B sadly
the cutoff was like <78 my sem
!gtech
do we know when ea2 is coming out?
fawk
Most likely Jan 31, probably
auguggh hi if
ahh gg jh
i had a dream abt opening my decision LMFAO
this is the 2nd time
all EA1 applicants
