"I'm pretty satisfied. The education has allowed me to advance in my career."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | It a convenient and flexible school. It also affordable. |
| Program Reputation | 4 | I don't think they're well known for this program. I've never seen them ranked anywhere. |
| Program Quality | 6 | The program was designed for people who majored in something other than CS or IS. Since I had an undergraduate degree already, it was a bit redundant. |
| Instruction | 6 | Like any other school I've attended, you have your good and bad professors. Overall, I had more good professors than bad. |
| How Difficult | 4 | Like I said, the program was for people who didn't necessarily have a background in IS. So it really wasn't that challenging. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | Not much I can say about this. We did some book work and some hands on work. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 8 | The program was designed for working adults. They're very flexible. |
| Academic Facilities | 7 | Many new buildings and equipment. I was pretty impressed with both. |
| Social Life | 5 | I can't really say on this because I was a working adult when I attended. It appeared to have an average social network. |
| Placement Services | 5 | I can't really say on this. I didn't use their services. |
| Alumni Network | 5 | I really don't have much to compare this to. My impression is favorable though. |

"I am very satisfied with GT. I would not change schools if I had it to do it over again."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | Georgia Tech is a great institution. The name Georgia Tech opens many doors for its alumni throughout their careers. |
| Program Reputation | 7 | It is not the best in the world, but it's very highly rated in the nation. Most people I know highly respect it. |
| Program Quality | 8 | The GT computer science program is excellent. It prepared me for my career. |
| Instruction | 8 | The professors I had did more than teach from a book. They also prepared me for my career. |
| How Difficult | 8 | Very challenging program. I have rarely encountered anything that was more difficult in my every day job. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | A good mix of both hands on and books. Could use a little more hands on work, though. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 7 | Mostly day classes. I would have liked some more flexibility. |
| Academic Facilities | 9 | Excellent selection of study areas. It also has great computer labs. |
| Social Life | 6 | I didn't get out much because of all the studying. I did enjoy going to football games. |
| Placement Services | 8 | They helped me find my first job. I have moved up from there in the same corporation. |
| Alumni Network | 8 | Very involved alumni network. They keep me informed of the changes at GT and allow me to stay in touch with some of my former classmates. |
