The best thing about Georgia Tech is it's ability to be very work oriented and full of research, studying and education, but then to also know the importance of having a good time -- especially in the Fall when football season is in full effect. This school prides it's self on working hard and playing hard, the epitomy of a Yellow Jacket!

I love the fact that everyone here is very serious about their education and careers, all the way from the professors to the students. Though friendships and socialization are also important aspects of the college experience, it feels good to know that everyone has their end goals about their careers and jobs in sight. This makes for a very competitive environment at this school, which pushes you to be your best and excel. This is excellent preparation for the real world and employers know this when they come to recruit at our school. Go Yellow Jackets!!!

My school's greatest attributes are its' educational assistance and its' ability to provide numerous incredible opportunities. With all of the help on campus, including: professor's office hours, free tutoring, PLUS sessions, writing/communications lab, math and science help desks, and the Teaching Assistants. There is always help readily accessible if you need it and at an academically rigorous school like Tech, it helps a lot. Also, Tech's reputation allows for students to succeed outside of the classroom as major companies, like Google, Microsoft, and Boeing to name a few, are fervently recruiting us.

Georgia Tech teaches you to learn. It challenges you to rise above what you thought you could do and learn things you never thought possible. So once out in the real world you can learn and do it quickly.

The focus on academics and especially research enables the students to be taught by professors who are leaders in their field. Also, the students learn how to think in novel ways and find out information for themselves.

The best thing about my school is the difficulty and talents of students. Georgia Tech is one of best engineering school in the country, and by default it have some of the most talented and gifted students. From my spective, I was on the wait list, which means I was on the bottom end of the spectrum. I was intimitaed but I was not defeated. I learned that through hard work and deciation, I was able to do the work and pass the test. Georgia Tech brought out the best of me and other students here.

Miguel

The best thing about my school is that it offers a great education combined with amazing people I can relate with. I find that it would be very hard for any other school to be able to have so much people like me and for me it is very important that I get socially engaged with the people at my school. Because of all these similiarities it is also extremely easy to get involved in the universities clubs and activities making my college experience extremely enriching.

Georgia Tech students are known for their results oriented work ethic, an attitude that is valued highly in the workplace.

Sallie

Although the school is notoriously known for its academic rigor, the feeling of accomplishment when you do well is unparallel. I love that my inclination to always work hard is celebrated here both by the university and prospective employers that understand the challenges Georgia Tech students face. However, even though there is a great push to academically succeed at Tech, there is a certain camaraderie that exists between peers that makes those long nights in the library bearable.

One of the many highlights about Georgia Institute of Technology is its proximity to such a busy city like Atlanta. By being so close to a business area, there are many recruiters and companies nearby that you are able to visit. It is a large school and almost everyone has heard of it. There are many parks and restaurants nearby if you ever need a study break. By being so close to a city, yet semi secluded, you are guaranteed to be safe but still have all the benefits of Atlanta's business district.

William

I consider the wide range of opportunities being the best thing about my school. The reason why I say that is because given the face that I love sports and my studies equally, I need both of them in my life. My school offers so many different intermural and places to play any sport you can think of to play on your spare time. On top of all the sports opportunities they also also offer many people and places to help you succed with your studies. They want to see you succed in your studies and have fun also.

The best thing about Georgia Tech is that it's a college in every sense of the word. There is pride, there is alcohol, and there is the stereotypical college experience that everyone has in their four, five, six years of college. And within this college is something better than the best thing: a community. Imagine 12,000 undergraduates, every one of them equally gifted with intelligence. Now imagine that this community also encompasses every type of student imaginable. Here, ideas and ideals are allowed to mingle to create an enriching student body - and everyone starts the same.
