Student athletes will be eligible to receive up to $5,980 per academic year if they meet the minimum standards.
“Schools have varied in the standards set to earn the payments, with the bar as low as maintaining academic eligibility. Others have bonuses tied to GPA thresholds. Tech’s is different in that it will be tied to participation in the department’s personal and career development program, such as career networking events.”

How will Tech athletes receive bonuses for professional development?
The awards will be based on participation in the Georgia Tech athletic department’s Total Person Program and community service, athletic director Todd Stansbury said in an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
