<p>More than likely yes.
Your GPA is a bit weak, but other than that I doubt you will get rejected.
It's easy to get into but hard to stay in.</p>

<p>i'm planning on being a future GA tech girl next year, so hopefully i won't get steryotyped as a nerd type... ppl automatically take off points on looks for that type thing! PS: re. original post, what kinds of math/science grades or electives do you have?</p>

<p>math/science grade is like a B+ avg. and electives i have an art, journalism, and religion (but that's req.)</p>

<p>the math-science is where is comes in... for engineering, that counts for way more...</p>

<p>Yeah there are girls, but it's a hefty male to female ratio. It's not like you won't see them at all, once you're there you'll hardly notice it unless you pay specific attention.</p>

<p>Since 1999, the first-year retention rate has never been lower than 90%. In other words, we keep most of our students; they don’t drop out in large numbers.</p>

<p>For students who entered in 2003, 82% were still at Tech after four years. </p>
