    Admission Reminders

    Justin LaFantano

  • Missing Documents ReminderDue to Covid-19 office closures earlier this year, Graduate Studies is currently in the process of getting caught up processing their backlog of received documents.

    New address for mailed OFFICIAL transcripts when electronic are not available:

    Georgia Institute of Technologyc/o Office of Graduate Studies631 Cherry StreetRoom 318Atlanta, GA 30332-0321(404) 385-4174 (Phone number for mailing purposes only; do not call)

    If your official documents were already sent to the Cherry Street address, you do not need to resend those transcripts unless those documents were returned to you undelivered.If you sent your official transcripts via an electronic transcript service to [email protected], you do not need to resend them unless you have been contacted by Graduate Studies instructing you to do so.

    Online Master of Science in Analytics

  • Reminders Regarding Your AdmissionInstitutional Review

    Even though you are recommended for admission, you will be subject to Institutional Review. Some of you may not yet be admitted by the Institute; Graduate Studies is still processing your admission

    Once your Institutional review has been completed, you'll receive an email from Graduate Studies. If you have anything outstanding, they will let you know. Often it is one or more of the following:

    Technology Requirements

    & Account Setup

    Michael Proctor

  • Technology RequirementsAll students should own a computer with the following minimum requirements:

    Form Factor: Notebook or Desktop Computer (a Chromebook or tablet should not be used as the primary computing device*.)A minimum of 6 hours of battery life is recommended.

    Processor: 64-bit Multi-core processor or better. *

    Memory: 8 GB or more. For best performance, we recommendthat you install as much memory as affordable at the time of purchase.

    Operating System: Windows 10 or MacOS (10.15 or better).We recommend to update to the latest versions for better protection against cyber security risks. We suggest turning on automatic update, for peace of mind. Before applying software and hardware updates, it is generally a good practice to back up your computer and to check that the updates would work with your existing applications.

    Online Master of Science in Analytics

  • Technology Requirements

    Backup Device or Service: Having a quality backup of your important files is vital to your success as a student. Windows and MacOS have built-in backup support (e.g., via Time Machine on MacOS). Utilizing OneDrive provided by GT at no charge is a good solution.

    Browser: The recommended browsers for web-based browsing would be the latest version of Internet Explorer/Edge, Mozilla Firefox, or Google Chrome.

    Primary Hard Drive: 250GB minimum. The larger the better as you may work with large datasets. Solid-state drives (SSDs) are recommended as they are much faster than hard disk drives (HDDs).

    Networking: Dual-Band (2.4 GHz/5 GHz) Wireless 802.11n enabled computer and a reliable fast network connection is required.

    Online Master of Science in Analytics

  • Technology RequirementsFree GitHub Repositories: Git is an industry-standard way for collaborative coding and version control. Many companies now expect git familiarity from employees. As a Georgia Tech student, you can create unlimited repositories, great for group projects (https://support.cc.gatech.edu/support-tools/faq/what-gt-github-enterprise).

    Always create a repository as a PRIVATE one (instead of public), and never put any sensitive information (e.g., passwords, AWS keys) in repositories. Bad people scan public repositories for such information for profit and can lead to huge financial loss from victims (e.g., use your credentials to run AWS jobs).

    System Options: A laptop or desktop with a webcam and microphone is required (built-in or external). A headset with microphone for clear communication while on video conference sessions is strongly recommended.

  • Technology Requirement* Please know that OIT and the Technology Support Center provide

    “limited/best effort” support for Linux distributions at this time. Some support documents have been created to support Linux users and are available at faq.oit.gatech.edu or for wireless configuration at lawn.gatech.edu.

    OIT recommends that students who need to use Linux for class assignments carefully consider which distribution of Linux they will install. For the best experience possible, OIT recommends students stay with Ubuntu-based Linux distributions such as one of the following:

    * Note that most netbooks and tablets (e.g. Apple iPad, Galaxy Tab and others that run on an operating system designed specifically for the device) do NOT meet the minimum hardware requirements above. While they may initially provide sufficient performance for basic tasks such as web browsing or simple word processing, use of technical software in courses may not be possible.

    Ubuntu Linux Mint Elementary OS

    We don't recommend you take MGT 8803 as your only course in the first semester It’s important knowledge for success, but

    content is pure business, not analytics Take MGT 8803 before MGT 6203

    Take advanced core/electives after intro core course in that area

    Registration and Academic Standing

    Yvonne McKinnon

  • By default, all OMS Analytics students are set at a maximum of six-credit hours per semester. To ask for an increase, send an email to [email protected] and briefly explain the

    reason for your request. Your credit-hour limit resets every semester, so if you want to increase your limit in the

    future, you’ll need to submit a new request each semester. Credit-hour increase requests can only be made after your time ticket is assigned.

    If you’re working full-time, we strongly suggest avoiding more than six credit-hours per semester. Students who have done so in the past said the workload was too overwhelming.Students can register for as little as one course per semester Subsequent to your first semester, you are not required to register every semester, meaning you can take time off. If you plan to be off for two or more consecutive semesters, you will need to complete a

    Readmission FormStudents have up to six-years from their first semester to complete the degree and graduation requirements Keep in mind each OMS Analytics course is just as rigorous, challenging and time-consuming (10-20 hours per week/course) as its on-campus equivalent

  • Course DropA “course drop” can occur during the “add/drop” period, which is open through the end of the first week of class. This period begins when your time ticket opens and ends at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, January 22. (The semester specific deadline is always available on the academic calendar.) If you drop a course during that time, it won’t appear on your transcript.

    It also won’t be included on your final tuition bill. If you paid for a course in advance and drop it during the "add/drop" period, you’ll receive a refund.

    Course WithdrawalAfter the “add/drop” period ends, the “withdrawal” period begins. This period remains open until the final deadline to withdraw, March 17. When you withdraw from a course, a grade of “W” will appear on your transcript for that course; the

    “W” has no impact on your GPA or standing with the degree program. You can still register for the course in a future term as needed. If you’re registered for multiple courses but only withdraw from some, you won’t receive a refund. If you withdraw from all courses, Georgia Tech will prorate your refund, if you qualify for one. If you withdraw from all courses for a semester, the action taken will say "Withdraw from School."

    Don’t let this alarm you. You can resume classes as early as the next semester. If you were registered for 12 or more credit-hours when you withdrew from all courses, please contact us via email when you want to register for courses again.

  • Academic StandingAcademic standing is based on both the term (semester) grade point average and the overall average of the student.

    The minimum term and overall grade point averages for a student to be designated as having Good standing is 2.7.

    It’s also recommended to earn a “B” or better in 2 of your 3 Foundational Core courses (or the respective replacement course if an Opt-Out Request was approved).

    While you may earn a “D” in a course, it will have an adverse effect on your GPA and academic standing.
