Cost

The orientation fee for each student will cover the cost of all orientation materials and Week of Welcome activities. In-person FASET sessions are $150. Virtual FASET sessions are $115. 

The fees for attending FASET will be automatically added to your Georgia Tech student account. Students are not charged at the time of registration, they will be charged at a later date.

Reservation Cancelations

If you are no longer attending FASET, cancellations must be received fifteen Business Days before your FASET session. (Business days are days that Georgia Tech is officially open for business.). Please email transitionprograms@studentlife.gatech.edu to officially cancel your reservation.

If you are not planning to enroll at Georgia Tech, please visit your admission portal to update your application. More information at the Undergraduate Admission website. Canceling your application with the Office of Admission will not automatically cancel your FASET registration. You must follow both processes.
