hi all! Does GATech give out scholarships and I was hoping to hear from alumni/applicants on the program!
You can filter the results on Tracker. Select GaTech and Accepted as result. It does show any admit got any scholarship.From my understanding they do not give out scholarships.
I haven't heard anything since my interview, and I was told I'd be hearing back by mid-March.Has anyone else heard back? Anyone there who still hasn't been interviewed?
My theory is that schools are receiving an influx of applications of much higher quality than in the past and they are not sure how to deal with them (i.e. how to get the best students they possibly can without destroying their yield %).GaTech has been on radio silence for about 2 months now. Emailing them does not even yield a reply. I think colleges this year are dragging the process far too long and the response of "we are a small team" is just seeming more and more like an inadequate excuse.
I apologise for the rant but being in a limbo with no decision this late into the admission cycle is not a good look - for the colleges.
I can understand that yes, and yet the onus is on the adcoms to deal with the situation in a way that suits all parties best.My theory is that schools are receiving an influx of applications of much higher quality than in the past and they are not sure how to deal with them (i.e. how to get the best students they possibly can without destroying their yield %).
Well...true, but then they will need to deal with the consequence of losing some very capable candidates who would otherwise be willing to attend their school but instead got put off by the lack of responsiveness. It goes both ways.I can understand that yes, and yet the onus is on the adcoms to deal with the situation in a way that suits all parties best.
Even if I let the delays slide and accept that this has been an unforeseen situation for them, what is not a good look is the lack of communication regarding the delays.
Yeah just saw two updates on the Tracker, unfortunately I haven't still heard anything from them. Thank you for informing, and best of luck with your applications!I heard back this morning, and rejected
The program director had sent a whatsapp link through mail to everyone.Hey guys, for those who have received admits and looking to join GTECH this fall (i.e. 2024) would love to connect. Feel free to DM me and we can create a WhatsApp group maybe?
