Tech is a very hard school, but if you put a lot of work into it you find that you learn more than you ever have before and you are extremely prepared for the real world. There are tons of organizations that you can get involved in and make a difference on campus. A lot of the on campus partying does deal with sororities and fraternities, but you don't have to belong to one to join in on the fun... also Tech is located in downtown Atlanta where there is always tons of stuff going on. This just isn't a place where you can sit back and expect things to come to you... you have to get up and go for it. I can't say I love this school every minute I'm here.. but I have awesome friends here and I know it's all worth it in the long run.

“Life here sucks onQuite BrightEngineering Department
Life here sucks on the weekend here, that is if you are the type of person who likes to do stuff on the weekend. Your choices for the weekends here are, join a frat/sorority or do some homework.

“Don't come to tech if you want toQuite BrightComputer Science
Don't come to tech if you want to have fun. Don't come to tech if you want to party. Don't come to tech if you like girls (there aren't any here). Don't come to tech if you don't know how to use a computer! Don't come to tech if you don't want to work harder than you've ever worked in your life. Don't come to tech if you're bad at math. Don't come to tech if you're not sure about what you want to do. Don't come to tech if you want to be treated as a student instead of a statistic.
DO come to tech if you're smart, competitive, have a will to learn, and want to be well prepared for an excellent job when you leave college.Tech's kind of like a REALLY cold pool- it's terrible when you first jump in, but those of you who don't die from hypothermia will be fine after you swim around for awhile.
