Indians applying to Georgia Tech!1

<p>Just share your thoughts and your stats-----wat do u wanna major in etc.?</p>

<p>I already applied; I am interested in studying aerospace engineering. The aerospace engineering program at Georgia Tech is ranked 2nd in the US, so it's supposed to be very good. (Although I'm not an international student per say. I am of Indian origin and am currently in India, but I am a U.S. citizen.)</p>

<p>I am Indian and applied to Georgia Tech. Its my first choice even though I have already been accepted to Purdue and UIUC. Not really sure that I will get in though. My stats are</p>

<p>SAT 1350/1600
GPA 3.49 (Josef Silny)
Cant login to oscar, if that helps.</p>

<p>What are your stats, Kumara?
My major is going to be industrial engineering. Btw, does being Indian be an advantage or disadvantage when applying to Georgia Tech?</p>

<p>You're in. GAtech isn't that selective and your stats are fine.</p>

<p>SAT ~1350/1600
GPA 3.89
Industrial Engg also
When did you apply uniguy?</p>

<p>Kumara, did J. Silny send you a GPA report?</p>

<p>They sent me one, but I haven't got it yet...</p>

<p>i'm an indian living in singapore. </p>

<p>any current gatech indians around, just wondering how's campus life @ gatech like?</p>

<p>Kumara – I applied on around December 23. Is that 3.89 GPA evaluated by Josef Silny? My majors Industrial engg too. </p>

<p>20Legend- Congratulations on your acceptance to tech. After how much time did you get your letter after your application status changed to “Application Complete”? My app status changed from In progress to “Application Complete” on Friday the 22nd .You have any idea when I’ll get my letter?</p>

<p>Ah, a United fan.</p>

<p>/random</p>

<p>uniguy, the 3.89 gpa is for my 10-12 grade (i studied in an american high school)...I got my 9th grade evaluated from JSilny but I havne't got the report yet..</p>

<p>Kumara: Which other schools did you apply to? Were you accpeted in any of them? Also, do you know if Internationals can fill the "International Student Financial Aid Application (ISFAA)" for Georgia Tech?</p>

<p>20Legend: Hey I noticed that you were accepted to Georgia Tech. After how much time did you get your letter after your application status changed to “Application Complete”? My app status changed from In progress to “Application Complete” on Friday the 22nd .You have any idea when I’ll get my letter?</p>

<p>Anyone have any idea about the ISFAA for engineering colleges (read UIUC, GaTech, Purdue etc.)?</p>

<p>hi,
i applied to tech in jan.
SAT 1290/1900
3.563 - josef silny gpa </p>

<p>what do u think about my chances?? </p>

<p>uniguy: none of the colleges you mentioned accept ISFAA. Only HYP and some other elite schools accept it.</p>

<p>You're pretty much in. There's no need to ask for GATech chances, they have a high acceptance rate :)</p>

<p>It might me a bit tough me thinks. But probably in ..</p>

<p>Most of the states schools don't give financial aid to international students at all..
I am still waiting to hear from GTech! Anyone heard back yet?</p>

<p>Yesssss.........
I can finally login to Oscar and can also see the "Campus Services" tab today. My app status is also "Application Complete". I dont think I can say for sure that I have been admitted but I sure am feeling relieved!!!!!</p>

<p>COngratulations Uniguy!! I logged in to check mine, but mine hasn't changed a bit yet....</p>

<p>Kumara, call them up and ask them if they have all your documents just to be sure ...</p>

<p>Actually, my status did change to 'Application Complete', but I meant no new tabs have been added--aaah!!
I got my JSilnsy eval today--GPA 3.93...
Will call GTEch again today and ask if a decision has been made on my application...Lets see what happens..</p>
