@vtanboy29 @sashadc Apparently they don’t mail…
“Over the past few years we have made a concerted effort to eliminate the printing of materials to help further the sustainability initiatives of the Institute, so it is likely that we will not be sending a paper copy by mail of your acceptance letter.”
'Thanks for the email and congratulations on your recent acceptance to Georgia Tech! To answer your first question, yes we do send out letters of acceptance to students. Those should have already been sent out. The Office of International Education will reach out to you for your visa process once you’ve submitted your acceptance deposit. ’
I emailed them specifically asking about international acceptance letters- really confused now… I emailed them again yesterday asking if they could track it, though, so let’s see.
@vtanboy29 @valodik
@sashadc yeh I emailed them specifically for acceptance letters too and got that reply yesterday. It won’t make sense if they send it to some internationals and not others, really confusing… But keep us posted if you receive any updates from them.
I believe invitations to all LLC’s have been sent out for RD, can anyone confirm?
Does anyone know when the I-20 process starts? (For international students)
@curious_ after depositing
Has anyone from the wait list been contacted yet? I know they said they would start calling people in May if slots were available!
@collegegirl120 we haven’t received any notification.
@curious_ The I-20 process starts as soon as you deposit your $250. You will get an e-mail for an I-20 request. Fill the e-forms consequentially and you will get the I-20.
Decision: deferred, accepted.
I applied for fall EA, was then deferred. So I emailed the admissions team and let them know tech was my number one school and that if I was accepted I would plan to attend in the fall, or even the summer. Which is definitely what I believe helped me get in to summer session!! And no, I do not have any family that goes to tech. So the acceptance is not conditional. I want to give hope to applicants applying to the class of 2022- my stats are not as exceptional as others- but I still got in!!!
Applied Major- BME
SAT- 1920
ACT- 31
GPA- 95
AP’s- took 8 AP’s. Only passed 2 exams. 4 on Lang, 3 on AP world. 1 on AP Calc lol. No subject testing.
Extra curriculars- generic honor society clubs.
Played no sports. Was not a captain of a club.
Had no special awards.
What really set me apart in my eyes was my essay and my hobbies. I love to babysit. I am also a lifeguard. I take care of my grandmother very often (she has Alzheimer’s). I worked in a law firm.
I submitted my application the day it opened- no one proofread my essay. My two short answer questions were terrible. I wrote my essay on Alzheimer’s. I’m not sure how I got in, but I am proud that I did. Don’t let other people’s stats scare you away from applying!!
