# First-Year Admission

## General Information for First-Year Admission

First-year students may only apply for the summer or fall terms. A completed application for first-year admission includes a non-refundable application fee and high school transcript (or equivalent). International applicants and applicants who have been homeschooled may be required to submit additional information. We accept the [Common Application](https://www.commonapp.org/school/georgia-institute-technology) for first-year admission.

It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that all required elements, including the application, non-refundable application fee, and high school transcript, are submitted by stipulated deadlines. All elements must be received prior to the first-year application deadlines. More information regarding first-year application deadlines can be found at <https://admission.gatech.edu/first-year/deadlines>.

Students may self-report standardized test scores on their application for us to use in file review. We will consider self-reported scores listed on your Common Application testing section. We provide a form in your Admission Portal to self-report scores after you submit your application. We will not use scores received via email, fax, or postal service. Students who are admitted and choose to enroll at Tech are required to submit official test scores from the testing agency.

The Office of Undergraduate Admission will consider all completed applications on file by the stated deadlines.
