Transfer student Rakeb Tesfassellasie is making good on a high school promise to herself: study industrial engineering at Georgia Tech.

On Friday, June 13, Georgia Tech welcomed students in the inaugural cohort of the Atlanta Bridge Program to campus to learn more about the program ahead of the Fall 2025 semester.
The Atlanta Bridge Program is a partnership between Tech and Atlanta Metropolitan State College (AMSC) that aims to bring talented students to the Institute as transfer students.
As a result of efforts to expand access to a Georgia Tech education for students across the state of Georgia, dual enrollment programs grew 160% percent in the past five years, from 680 students in 2020 to 1,772 students in 2024-25 academic year.
Georgia Tech’s Office of Undergraduate Admission (OUA) is excited to announce a new advising partnership with Matriculate, a free near-peer college advising program dedicated to helping talented students from limited-income backgrounds navigate the path to college.
This partnership will continue expanding access to a Tech education by adding a network of current Tech students to the pool of undergraduates nationwide who specialize in assisting prospective university students in their college search journey.
Across the Regular Decision and Early Action applicant groups, almost 67,000 students applied for admission into Tech’s Fall 2025 first-year class, with more than 8,500 receiving admission offers. Overall, the Fall 2025 admit rate for Georgia residents is 30%; it is 9% for nonresidents.
Of all the buildings he passed on trips as a child from his hometown of Canton, Georgia, to Atlanta, Andrew Solano frequently found himself drawn toward Georgia Tech’s iconic North Avenue Apartments. Gazing at the buildings looming over the Downtown Connector and bearing Tech’s name, Solano often thought about what he could achieve on Tech’s campus.
Mary Tipton Woolley has been named the new executive director of Georgia Tech’s Office of Undergraduate Admission. Woolley will assume the role immediately.
On March 7 at 7 p.m., Georgia Tech admitted 1,048 Georgia students in the Regular Decision 1 round of undergraduate admission decisions. These students join those already admitted during the Georgia students-only Early Action 1 phase, making for a total of 3,666 Georgia admitted students for Tech’s 2025 first-year class.
On Friday, Jan. 31, 36,185 students applying to Georgia Tech during the Early Action 2 phase received their admission decisions.
