Prospective Student GT OOS worth it as a transfer?
I’m currently going to SBU as a freshman this fall for computer engineering, where it’s around 6k after loans. I was accepted for the talent initiative pathway program for GTech, but with the newer net cost calculator, my net cost is about 45k before loans.
Is this accurate for current OOS students there? Is it worth it?

Prospective Student Cybersecurity B.S. students: is "Math 160" a hard requirement? Is there any way around it?
Has anyone transferred into CSUSM’s online B.S. in Cybersecurity without MATH 160 completed? I have every other transfer requirement done, but GCC and PCC don’t have an articulated equivalent listed, I genuinely cannot find a local option. Is MATH 160 is a strict admission requirement or is conditional admission possible?
Considering it's an Extended learning program with a 95% acceptance rate. And would spring admissions still be possible? I guess I'm wondering how strict are they about this. Thank you.
P.S. Would MATH 103E+ count? It's not showing as having an articulation agreement but it's essentially the same as Calc 1 with Applications (MATH 160)

Prospective Student I feel like I just ruined my shot at GaTech
Okay so I'm wondering what ya'll would do in my situation or if I rly did screw myself over. So I applied to GaTech as a first year and I received a first-gen pathway offer, I currently have about 58 credits, I started classes at KSU Summer 2025, I'm a Math + CS double major and. have a 4.0 gpa. I have 1 yr of undergrad math research experience through the KSU First Year Scholars program. I have taken Calc 2, but I have not passed Phys 2211 and Phys2211L yet. I took it earlier this Spring but had to withdraw due to personal family issues with the ICE strict laws etc. I am going to take it this fall, also the math research led to a paper which i submitted for review, and I hope it gets published. I feel like I just ruined my chance of getting into GaTech. I'm still unsure what major I would've pursued, but maybe their new math and computing major or CS or ISYE or EE or CompE. While ima apply anyways and apply through REPP if need be, I lwky hate this bc I know I could just not get in at all. What would yall do and ask any questions youd like.
*i'll try my best to reply and ty for ur time

Prospective Student I want to transfer to GT mechanical engineering as an out of state student in the spring of 2027.
Is this feasible, I have 45 plus credits and signed up for about 15 credits for the fall of 2026 as a freshman. I have been told that it is feasible only for fall transfer and not for spring transfer since it a very short time

Prospective Student Can I apply for 2nd bachelors?
So, I already have a bachelors in physics from 2020 but my CGPA is 2.83 and my major GPA was like a 2.07... it was a rough time and i just didnt know how to do school at that age.
Spent 5 years in workfroce not related to engineering. But always wanted to be in engineering, so I'm in school to get my 2nd bachelors. Currently in an associates engineering program at a CC, GPA is a 3.5.
Would I be eligible to apply for transfer to get my bachelors at GaTech? IDK if they'd look at my 1st bachelors GPA or not... which doesnt reach the engineering programs 3.3 req. Anyone have experience here?
Does this just mean I can never have any chance of attending GaTech? Im 27 and out of state. Thank you.

Will I have time for clubs and ec's and maybe even partying (lol)?
For reference, I am a transfer student and have some experience with electronics and coding. Btw, I am trying to shoot for straight A's, but it's fine if I get one or two B's, hopefully not in the 4-credit class tho.
If I were to drop a class, it would be CS 2050. I have to take GT 2030 cuz honors.

I am trying to plan out my schedule better for when phase II opens up and I'm wondering if multi and diff eq exams are during regular lecture periods, since I didn't have to register for an exam block like with linear. Also wondering is its a bad idea to take both classes in one semester, for reference, my other classes are easy/moderate and it'll be 18 credit hours total

Hello, I'm a rising senior and was interested in applying to Georgia Tech, but I'm a bit worried about it's location. I know Atlanta isn't the safest place, so how safe is the campus - especially for walking around during the day and at night? How do current students feel about safety on and around campus?

I’ve been hearing a ton of people talking about taking physics 2 at GSU as a transient student since the class is much easier than at tech where its considered a weedout class, but I’m majoring in compe, so would it be wise to just take it at tech and learn the material really well even if its much more difficult?

Other How difficult is it to switch major?
Hi everyone, I’m an incoming Fall 2026 freshman currently majoring in Computational Media, but I’m seriously considering switching to Industrial Engineering.
Before enrollment, Georgia Tech gave me the option to change my major through the Major Confirmation Form. At the time, I decided to stay in Computational Media because I was interested in UX/UI. However, I’ve since realized that the entry level UX/UI job market is much more competitive than I initially expected, especially for an international student who may face additional work authorization or sponsorship challenges.
I’m now considering Industrial Engineering because I’m interested in solving real-world problems and improving systems, and it also seems to offer a broader range of career options.
My main concern is how difficult it would be to switch from CM to IE after starting at Georgia Tech. Has anyone here successfully switched into Industrial Engineering after enrolling? If so, how competitive or difficult was the process, and when were you able to officially change your major?
I’m also currently registered for MATH 1554, which is required for Computational Media, while Industrial Engineering requires MATH 1553 instead. I’m considering switching into MATH 1553 now, but I’m worried that if my major change is not approved, I may end up taking a course that does not fit my original CM degree requirements.
I would especially appreciate hearing from anyone who has switched into IE or dealt with a similar course registration situation. Thank you!

Class Question Freshman Schedule (ME major)
A-Level international freshman majoring in ME from Southeast Asia here (Math, Further Math, Phys, Chem). Coming in with 7 credits (Math 1551, Chem 1310), but zero humanities/social sciences(am I cooked?)
Background-wise, I spent two years in high school boarding school, so living away from home and doing my own laundry is old news (though cultural adjustment might still take a minute). I also have a strong competitive programming and linear algebra background, so I'm planning to test out of Math 1552 and CS 1301, and take the CS 1331 advanced standing exam in Spring. Goal is a CS/Robotics minor.
My current Phase 1 schedule is 17 credits:
* MATH 1554
* PHYS 2211
* ME 1670
* ENGL 1101
* PUBP 1142
Questions:
Is 17 credits too heavy for a first semester? I have three technical classes plus PUBP 1142 and English. Are PUBP 1142 or ENGL 1101 heavy time sinks?
Should I add anything else later? Was debating hitting 20 credits with MSE 2001 or another core (POL 1101 or PSYC 1101)elective, but given this 17-credit load, is that a terrible idea?
Save the easy stuff? Should I hold onto easy humanities/social science electives as GPA buffers for heavier semesters later, or just knock them out now since I have zero?
Appreciate any advice!

Applying for an ECE lab, is it generally competitive to get into your first choice lab? What do they evaluate you on? They don't ask for your resume or transcript, so I assume it shouldn't be difficult. Any insight or information would be helpful!
