4

<p>I say you're in. A 1380 Math+CR is a great score. Plus, you have a nice GPA.</p>

5

<p>Actually just got my new SAT scores back
1530
790 CR
740M
Any chance for money now?</p>

<p>Congrats! Wow, we have IDENTICAL SAT scores. I hope we both make semi-finalist come December for President's Scholarship!</p>

<p>I was just at Gatech this weekend and ABSOLUTELY loved it. Its harder to convince the parents though. Money would help...<br>
And its really weird that we have the same SAT scores, plus you are from Anderson, South Carolina and my last name is Anderson....even weirder (Ok so im a nerd)</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

8

<p>do you guys happen to know how many semi-finalists that tech chooses?</p>

9

<p>last year it was 440 I think</p>

10

<p>thanks.......but ouch, that sucks....there goes my chance at least of becoming a semi-finalist.....lol, still, good luck to everyone!</p>

11

<p>I think you definitely have a shot at some financial aid with the new scores. Tech isn't known for being particularly generous though.</p>

12

<p>fullcollapse - you are a female. You have already increased your chances for admission!</p>

<p>For Fin Aid, don't count on it to be the same for 4 years. In fact count on it going down over time.</p>
