<p>i really want to get into TECH, but i dont think i will, i have a 3.3ish GPA, ive taken 10 AP courses, and my SAT score was not that high, im pretty sure i can bring higher, and i have about 150-200 volunteer hours, and im in Key Club, cofounder and President of BHS MSA, and i am in SVC, so is it still possible for me to get into TECH. and also what should my SAT score be in order to help me??</p>
<p>That’s a very low GPA for Tech. I’m not sure you’ll get in with any SAT score, but certainly shoot for 2200+. I have seen people get in with that sort of GPA, though (usually with a good SAT score and a Summer Offer). </p>
<p>The good news is that there are many options to get into Tech if regular admission doesn’t work out. The first is the Summer Offer that I already mentioned (you start in the Summer instead of the Fall and take two classes then). Also, there’s a GT Savannah offer where you attend GT Savannah and Armstrong Atlantic for 2 years before transferring to Atlanta. Also, there’s the GTREP program where you start at a place like Georgia Southern for two years before transferring to Tech. And there’s the option to transfer from any college (Tech only considers the college GPA of transfer applicants, not the high school GPA or SAT score). You can attend Georgia State not far from Tech, spend your free time at Tech, then transfer in to Tech for your sophomore year.</p>
<p>thanks, and how would they choose you for the Summer Offer??</p>
<p>You apply for admission. Based on that they can make a number of different offers based on your qualifications:</p>
<p>Admission with PSP
Early notification admission
Regular decision admission
Conditional admission (admitted based on meeting certain conditions)
Summer offer (admitted if you start in the short summer session with 2 classes)
GT-Savannah offer (rejected from GT, admitted to GT Savannah)
Waitlist
Deferred to regular decision then rejected
Rejected</p>
<p>As far as I know, you can’t ask for Summer offer specifically, they just have to offer it to you. It’s really not a bad deal to start in the summer, though. In fact, unless you have a summer internship already, starting in Summer might be a better option than starting in Fall.</p>
<p>thanx again, and yeh i would rather start in the summer, i mean its perfectly alright with me, and so its up to them what they can offer me, i mean like what if you had really major family health problems during your freshmen and sophmore year, but then u pulled your grades up significantly, does that help in any way?</p>
<p>I’m sure that would help. In fact, I think that’s the sort of thing they look for in a Summer Offer student.</p>
<p>Again thanks so much
uve been alot of help</p>
