Welcome Yellow Jackets! We can't wait for you to join us this summer. Below you'll find all the info you need regarding your iGniTe housing for summer 2024. All iGniTe students will live in Glenn and Towers Residence Halls. You can visit our Housing Options page to take a virtual tour and get to know your summer home.
iGniTe Summer to Fall Transition
Move-out is August 2 - Summer residents should plan to transition from their summer appointment to their fall assignment on August 7, 2024 (in most cases).
If you cannot make that move that day, you should plan to move out completely by August 2, and make a move-in appointment for Fall First-year Move-in on August 10 or 11 to move back in.
Watch your email for communication from Housing about your transition.
iGniTe Housing Application
Apply for iGniTe Housing by logging into the My Housing portal and selecting "Summer 2024" from the term selector page. Summer Housing rates for Late Short Summer Traditional rooms can be found on the Housing Rates page.
iGniTe Roommate Selection

Arriving by car?

- A driver will need to stay with your vehicle(s) during the unloading process.
- You will have 20 minutes to unload your car.
- As soon as your belongings are out of your vehicle(s), you will need to move to long term parking.
- To avoid unnecessary traffic in unloading zones, any passenger-only vehicles should skip the check-in process and go directly to long term parking before joining the unloading party.
Arriving by Rideshare?

- The rideshare vehicle will be able to drop off the student and exit the Georgia Tech check-in process.
- The student should approach the check-in desk and provide their ID to begin the check-in process.
Arriving by Public Transit?
Those taking public transit should take MARTA to the Midtown/10th St station and then take the campus Gold Route to 5th Street and Techwood Dr. and take the Blue or Red Route to the Techwood and Bobby Dodd Way stop. Then, follow the signs to check-in. Find the schedule for the Bus Routes here.
Arriving Late?

Students arriving to campus via non-official check-in days should …
On business days, from 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. students should go to their area office. At the office students will receive their key and a BuzzCard if available. Moving bins will not be available on non-official move-in days.

Students arriving to campus after hours should….
If arriving after hours (after 8 p.m.) students should go to their hall and call the Resident Assistant on Duty (RAoD). The phone number for the RAoD should be posted on a yellow card on or near the entrances of the buildings. The RAo D will be able to check the student in and use a master key to let the student into their room. The next day, the student will then either go to the CRC deck to get their keys (if there’s a check-in day), or go to get their keys from their area office.
