<p>One of my friends has been telling me that he got into Tech. However, he had explicitly told me multiple times that he hadn't even <em>applied</em> until after the Dec.15 decision date last semester, and then bam he was magically accepted in late January.</p>
<p>Is he lying to me? It's not like it's unbelievable that he would get in (2100+ SAT, although below average GPA and bad course rigor and EC's), but I looked at Tech's website and the only date for the decision other than the Dec. 15th one is in March...</p>
<p>Sounds kind of fishy. Maybe he really did apply early and didn’t want to say anything in case he didn’t get in? if not… How about asking him to be your roommate? and tell him he needs to get his deposit in right away so you can select him, also you will need his GT ID so you can select him.:)</p>
<p>Is it a likely letter? I don’t know whether GaTech sends out likely letters. But if it does and he receives one, then he is guaranteed admission at this time.</p>
