“I live on east campus. The freshman dorms on east are a bit more run down than the newer ones on west- and I plan on living on west next…”
“The dorms aren't necessarily anything special. A lot of people are pretty easy to get along with but keep in mind GT is a pretty nerdy school, so you already…”
“They have programs for Freshman that are always entertaining, and brand new (relatively) West Campus dorms that were built for the 1996 Olympians.…”
“Freshman dorms on west campus are larger and have better facilities, but are far from the center of campus. East campus is close to greek row, most classes, and the…”
“The dorms are usually cramped and small. There is little personal space. However, students can get apartments in which they have their own rooms.…”
The dining halls are good, but you will get sick of them. In the student center theres a Chick-Fil-A, Dunkin Donuts, Taco Bell, Subway, Pizza Hut and the Food Court, which has all sorts of multicultural foods, but the best place on campus is Highland Bakery, it seems a little pricy, but it's so worth it.
» Read MoreDining halls aren't great, it's kind of like an all you can eat school cafeteria. You definitely won't go hungry if you have a meal plan though. But your taste buds won't exactly be happy either.
» Read MoreThere are three dining halls on campus, which all provide a similar food set - burger station, hot food, cereal, salad bar, pasta bar, and desserts. The quality of food at the dining halls could be compared to that of a high school cafeteria, but just with more options. There are also several restaurants represented on campus at the student center, including Taco Bell, Subway and Chick Fil A.
» Read MoreSome say its great and a lot say its bad. I personally don't like it much, but it beats trying to cook especially if you don't have time.
» Read MoreOn campus meal plans are ok but there are plenty of places around campus to get food if you get tired of the meal plan.
» Read MoreThe food is pretty good, no real complaints. There are three dining halls on campus none of which are bad but there's easily a hierarchy in the three.
» Read MoreHonestly, I'm not a huge fan of the dining halls. There are three- 2 on east, Brittain and North Ave, and one on west, Woody's. Since I live on east, I've only been to Woody's once, and heard that while there is a variety it is generally not all that appetizing. Brittain has an ethnic variety but it generally stays the same, and they have a very lazy and rude staff. Breakfast is generally delicious though, depending on the time you go. North Ave is open until 2am M-Th, and is closed on the weekends; the food is the best quality of all of the dining halls, with International Fare and Wok options, but they repeat meals a lot. Overall, the dining is what you could expect on campus. In the Student Center there are restaurants like Chickfila, Taco Bell and Subway, and a food court on the second floor with places like Far East Fusion (one of my favorites), Dunkin Donuts and Great Wraps. The commercial variety is actually quite excellent in my opinion.
» Read MoreThe food is pretty good.
» Read MoreYuck. Boring and mediocre quality (at best).
» Read MoreThe dining halls are all pretty bad in my opinion, but the food in the Student Center is really good. I usually just order or cook something to get some variety in my food choices.
» Read MoreThere's plenty of frats there, whether they be traditional or multicultural or whatever other type there are. The frats party like all other ones, and they all seem to have the same brotherhood. Oddly enough, the greek population at Tech have higher average GPAs than the non-greek population, which is opposite than normal schools.
» Read MoreIt's prevalent here so if you love that kind of life, you would fit in to this school as well.
» Read MoreGreek life is amazing on campus. It is a group of very supportive individuals. I highly recommend it especially at Tech. It isn't like typical Greek life at larger SEC schools if you don't want it to be.
» Read MoreThe Greek Life on campus is huge. Though I'm not a direct part of it, I have participated in a few of the events offered by the frats and sororities on campus.
» Read MoreI am not greek, but I am very close with people that are greek. I also attend most of the events (parties, formal, semi-formal,ect...). I have experience with many of the different fraternities, and sororities, so it isn't a biased judgement. Greek life is either for you or not. There isn't a gray area. You have to give your whole heart into and be active. At rush every greek organization will tell you how they are different and awesome ,but the differences are minimal. Almost all of them party(with heavy alcohol) except the more religious ones, and even then they party too. Forget what they said about hazing. It exists, now granted it isn't as bad as it would be at an SEC school, but it is here and especially in fraternities it can be really bad. Plan for at least a week of hell, and probably the most dehumanizing experience of your life. After all that though you will have brothers or sisters that will be with you for as long as you are an active member. There are a lot of cool experiences with Greek life. They go on a lot of trips and have many social events. Free alcohol and parties every Friday sometimes Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. It's easy at Tech for women whether you are greek or not because of the ratio of boys to girls. You do not have to be greek to have a social life, but it is easier for boys if you don't make friends easily.
» Read MoreThe parties are fun and the people are nice and are willing to help you with class material.
» Read MoreA lot of people are involved in Greek Life, but just not me. There is so much to do already that it's not really necessary.
» Read MoreGreek life is very different on our campus than on other campuses because there is a certain stereotype of Greek college students, but we don't necessarily fit into that because academics play a very important role in students' lives regardless of whether they are Greek or not.
» Read MoreIt's a big part of the campus but you can be perfectly happy, well-rounded etc without being a part of it.
» Read MoreGeorgia Tech is definitely big on Greek Life.
