So sad. I hope you applied to other programs as well. Care to share your profile and timelines on the Tracker to help other QuantNet members?

Same, Especially given that they sent an interview invite - canceled it due to scheduling and said a new link would be sent - instead received a rejection email.

Have you already received a rejection email!? Damn! Does GATech send rejection emails even before sending interview invitation emails!?

Yup, idk how it works, seems like I was selected for interviews but rejected before the interview. Strange.

I’d applied in late November and had my interview early December. I see on the the tracker that people who applied after me have gotten their admits/rejects but I haven’t heard anything - which is confusing on its own.

I recently interviewed at Georgia tech, and I think I bottled my interview. Is there any chance I will get an admit.

Did anyone successfully get an extension to respond to their offer?

Just out of curiosity, are decisions released every Wednesday and Friday?

hlios_ryu · 2/5/25

Has anybody heard back from GATech in the last couple of days? It seems to be radio silence

Just a speculation that the admission process might have been postponed due to unexpected snow in Atlanta.

From the past applications, it seems like Georgia Tech doesn't release decisions much on February

Andy Nguyen · 2/13/25

In the Zoom event today, Laura mentioned that if you applied before December 15 and have not received decision, reach out to her. Applications after Dec 15 will hopefully get results by March 15.
They also admitted that they over admitted last year so this year, they will correct that. It will mean harder to get in.
Best of luck everyone. Remember to add your timelines to the Tracker.

i heard back last week

Yash Jain · 2/14/25

Can I apply to this program with a 3.68 GPA (no GRE)? They say GRE is waived off for those with a GPA above 3.7.
Would it be worth it over NYU Tandon MFE or NCSU MFM?

mudit · 2/18/25

I heard back today, they mentioned that they'll defer my application to final round, and will get to know my decision by may 1st. Had applied in the early round XD
Anyone else received similar and how bad is this?

YuminWu · 2/19/25

Still awaiting a response... I sent an email last week as I applied on 12/03 but have not received any decision yet.

Andy Nguyen · 2/19/25

Every application has to go through the faculty and the professors can look at the application when they are available. This is beyond control of the staff and explains the delays.
