I recently received the invitation to apply to GA Tech’s honors program and was wondering if it’s actually worth it. How does it compare in rigor to non-honors classes? Does it help you get internships or scholarships?
To add on to the question,
What more do I have to do for getting in Honors? Are there more essays or something?
@Stilltay
I got the same link in my email too. However, even after meticulously reading the posts, I couldn’t come across any explicit list of the requirements for honors.
Maybe I am missing something. Please either copy paste the relevant info here, or simply post the direct link to the requirements page.
@ determined
maybe this will help. It is different than honors programs at most state schools which are set up to create a challenging environment for top students. All students at tech fall into that category.

Thanks @Stilltay
This link explains it very well.
Also, it says something about ‘Honors Supplement’. Any idea what’s that?
Probably the additional essaay questions on the honors app. You should be able to get to that if you click on the link in your email.
Is Honors worth it?
Coming back to the main question, what do you guys think of honors?
