  Deferred Supplemental Form Mid-Year Transcript*
Early Action 1 January 12, 2024 February 1, 2024
Early Action 2 February 14, 2024 February 14, 2024

*If transcript is not available by the deadline, please submit it as soon as possible.

If you would like to submit new or updated test scores, the final date for them to be considered is February 1, 2024.

Non-native English-speaking applicants are encouraged to participate in a recorded interview that will be added to your application for admission. While this video is not required (as there is a cost associated with it), it offers you a chance to express yourself in a manner that cannot be presented in a written application. We ask that you complete and submit your interview by February 14, 2024.

If you no longer want to be considered for first-year admission, visit your admission portal to cancel your application to Georgia Tech.
