Academics & Scholarship
Alpha Gamma Delta establishes a strong academic foundation for all members and encourages them to reach for their best. Our Academic Excellence Team provides members with resources and motivation to excel. They also keep members current on available scholarships, study abroad programs, tutoring assistance, job interview and resume skills training, internships and career counseling.
Academic success is celebrated in Alpha Gamma Delta—both as a group and individually. In addition to chapter-wide recognition for academic achievement, the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation awards scholarships to more than 150 deserving sisters across the U.S. and Canada.
The Gamma Phi chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta exemplifies scholastic achievement both inside and outside of the classroom. We are proud to have sisters pursuing majors in all of the six colleges at Georgia Tech. Our sisters understand the importance of promoting academic achievement, whether it is being a Teacher’s Assistant for a class, an Athletic Association athlete tutor, or simply using our house study rooms to hold review sessions or study groups. Our chapter has 8 Presidential Scholars and 19 women in the Honors Program. Nearly half of our chapter is honored on the Dean’s List with an overall GPA of 3.0 or higher. Our sisters further attain internships, co-ops, and full-time jobs after graduation at prestigious companies and organizations such as Coca-Cola, IBM, Exxon Mobil, Microsoft, and the Georgia Capitol. We love being involved on campus as well, which is evident through the many sisters that represent the Student Government Association, philanthropy and service organizations, varsity athletics, and honor societies. The sisters of Alpha Gamma Delta strive to make academic excellence our top priority.
