What is the graduation rate at Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus?

Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus reports a graduation rate of approximately 94% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.

Students who borrowed at Georgia Institute of Technology-Main Campus left with a median of approximately $21,672 in federal loans, and about 17% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
