Registration Reminders

Consider IP-required coursework when registering for courses! These classes can fulfill social science, ethics, or humanities requirements, and it’s best to begin completing them early in your degree plan. Please see the GT catalog for the Registrar’s official list of courses that count in each category. The short list of courses that are going to be offered in spring 2020 was emailed out on October 22^nd. Please email internationalplan@gatech.edu if you would like that document re-sent.

Studying Abroad in Spring 2020?

Make sure your approval paperwork is on file! After your experience has been declared or approved, you may request a permit to the appropriate IP study abroad audit course by emailing internationalplan@gatech.edu. The paperwork and permit allow you to count your international experiences for the IP.
