Georgia Tech QCF Admission Discussion

Georgia Tech's QCF Program is a professional, interdisciplinary graduate degree program.

  • Andy Nguyen is an Administrator
From my understanding they do not give out scholarships.
They have no scholarship but you can apply for funding in the form of graduate teaching assistantship, graduate assistantship from different departments. You get some money in exchange to teaching.

What do you mean by second round ? I haven’t received anything after submitting the application.
Like second round is the interview. like there is a mandatory interview for everyone to get into the program, it is with the director of the program if I am not wrong. Can I dm you btw?

Hi,

May be a bit late to your questions, to my knowledge GT has one interview, which is by invitation. I believe those requests are being sent out on a rolling basis. As you may be aware from reading this forum, Laura usually does the interview but has recently had a death in her family so others are stepping up. I had my interview last week with Kayln, and it was completely behavioral. As for decisions, Kayln said it would be about an 8 week turnaround. Given they will be without Laura for a significant time during round 1, I would not be surprised if they are behind a bit in sending interview requests out.

Hope this helps!

Thank you for this useful information, Andrew. This answers many of my questions.
Based on the Tracker data, the average processing time for GaTech applications is 74 days. This year may see some delay based on the personnel issues.

Has anyone received Georgia Tech QCF Fall'25 admission results / admits ?
FYI, I received my status update today. I would guess they released a batch of "good news" results before American Thanksgiving. However, I did look at the tracker from the past couple years and many round 1 admits do come out between now and the end of December.
