@TexasAggie99

The conditional pathway program is a program for legacy students only. Its rules fall outside the other pathway programs. Yes all majors are available for this program.

https://admission.gatech.edu/transfer/transfer-pathway-programs

The arts and sciences pathway is the majority of pathway offers, and the one I was thinking about. You can go to Tech with this option but not for engineering.

Do you still see the major mentioned anywhere on the portal? Can’t see any major related wording on S20’s portal now. Was there before decision was out last week ( the asterisk etc.)

ACCEPTED!!!
GPA: 4.563 W / 3.875 UW
ACT: 28 (E 26 M 27 R 34 S 25) I know it’s bad :confused:
17 AP classes
EC: Tennis and Cheer, President of national honor society, international studies magnet program, fluent in Spanish, founder of a club, over 250 community service hours, a job where I work during the week and weekends, etc
I think my gpa and ecs made up for my weak test scores also I am in state so that helped

@Greymeer thank you!

  1. Accepted summer session (???)
  2. OOS
  3. 4.0uw/4.5w
  4. 1570 superscored, didn’t submit subject tests
  5. Navy internship, Quadcopter club VP, internship teaching underprivileged kids to code, Mock Trial lead defendant, State Department exchange in Morocco
  6. don’t think I got scholarships but applying for ROTC
  7. had pay now button

I was super excited to be accepted and then saw the summer session thing which sucks because I’ve already committed to an internship/ costs more money… but I think it may be because I missed my junior year so I missed an opportunity to get some APs knocked out? I know aerospace requires a lot of credits so it makes sense but I’m still a little disappointed. Does anyone know anything about the program?

SAT 2: 800 Math 2, 740 Physics

ngl was expecting a rejection but this is good news!!

My son was deferred. We never visited, but are trying to plan one in the next few weeks. We’re not too surprised by the deferral.

Deferred - applied for CS

OOS

SAT 1600
SAT II Math II 800, Physics 780
ACT 36
AP Scores: CSA 5, CALC BC 5, APUSH 4, US Govt 5, Physics 1 4, Eng Lit & Comp 4
Current APs: AP Chem, AP Stats, AP Physics C, AP French V
UWGPA 3.93, WGPA 4.50
NMSF (so far no rejection letter, so we’re assuming he’s a finalist)

Lots of relevant ECs, placed in state for math team 2 years, state qualifier for ACES team

PT jobs with a good amount of hours (summer paid internship in tech support with school district for 35 hrs/wk, first semester internship of 20 hrs/wk in CS, 1 year of PT work at restaurant where he has moved from a busser to a host to a server) on top of most rigorous schedule possible

Looking forward to the visit so he can weigh his options and possibly move his EDII school to RD.

S20 is accepted, applied as a CS major.
ACT: 36 once sophomore year
Subject Test: Math2 800 (freshman), Physics 780 (junior)
GPA: 95.9??/100 no weight no ranking ( school profile says, 90+ is A, 80+ is B, etc. if to convert to letter grade)
Rigor: most rigor for a competitive STEM Magnet HS
EC: State certified EMT/first responder started sophomore year, Varsity tennis, BU RISE summer, various school club, council etc.
Awards: nothing outstanding, some class awards, a couple state/regional math/science competition, NMSF, etc.

I think his STEM class rigor/grades + EMT got him in.
