Welcome to the Division of Student Life at Georgia Tech! Student Life has a rich and strong history of providing student support services and co-curricular learning opportunities that help our diverse student community acquire and apply life-learning skills. The Division supports the mission of Georgia Tech by enhancing the student experience through programs and services that focus on student transition, learning, leadership, wellness and success, as well as student and parent engagement.
The Division of Student Life remains open with regular office hours of Monday – Friday from 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM. Division staff are closely following recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Department of Health to practice social distancing, provide health education to our students, and practice effective workplace hygiene as protection from Covid-19. Staff will continue to offer virtual appointments and face-to-face appointments (with face coverings and physical distancing protocols) during the Fall semester.
