<p>Okay, so I live in GA and I'm considering going to Ga Tech, but I have heard so many different comments about Georgia Tech that frankly, I have no clue what to think of Ga Tech. I have always had a prejudice against Ga Tech because I keep hearing all these negative comments about how dirty it is there and how the classes aren't the greatest, but on the other hand, I also hear that it's a great school with a great rank and the teacher's are great and that it is really not as bad as people say it is.
I know for me it would be easier to go to Tech because of the HOPE scholarship, but from what I have heard , I don't know what to think.
And, no , I have not visited the school; I know it is stupid of me because I only live an hour or two away.
My parents also don't think highly of GA tech, but that is also because of the negative scope of comments that they have heard about it, so I'm wondering what you guys' opinion on Ga Tech is.</p>
<p>What do you want to study? Because that will really affect whether Tech is right for you not.</p>
<p>Computer Science( Software Engineering)</p>
<p>As far as Computer Science and Engineering is concerned, Georgia Tech is a great choice. It offers a nationally ranking program. As far as the environment is concerned, that goes to personal preference. I visited Georgia Tech and thought it was very clean considering it was in the heart of Atlanta. While most students have been complaining that there has not been much greenery on campus, the administration has been attempting to beautify the campus. If your not into a city environment, then Georgia Tech may not be for you. Academically however, it does have a nationally ranking program. I'm hoping to be admitted for this upcoming class myself.</p>
<p>i absolutely love tech and i think you would too. the only downfall is that tech is challenging but being a CS major you should expect that. tech is very clean idk why you heard that</p>
<p>I heard a few years ago that there is virtual reality program in GT, is that still going on because that is the main reason why I want to go to GT</p>

<p>All right! Thank you.

<p>Hey akvareli, I visited Ga Tech about a month ago and honestly, I was very impressed with its campus. My first choice was Emory b/c all my cousins went to Emory, Duke, and MIT so my dad expected me to go to a prestigious school also. But after visiting Tech, I was more impressed with its campus than the Emory campus for its beautiful facilities, great engineering programs, and first-rate faculty. It is in-state tuition, HOPE scholarship eligible, close to Newnan (my home town), a top-ranked engineering institute, has fastest internet 2nd to the Pentagon, and in the heart of the city of Atlanta. What can beat that? After visiting Tech, it is now my first choice and I hope you can visit the campus also so you can see what Tech really feels like. Just my 2 cents</p>
<p>The internet here is f-ing rediculous :)</p>
<p>I am extremely happy with choosing to come here... I was scared going to places likes Student Review and seeing nothing but negative comments, but those people are by far in the minority. Most people here are happy.</p>
