ABOUT PRE-TEACHING
The Georgia Tech Pre-Teaching program supports undergraduates, graduate students, post-docs, and alumni considering a career in K-12 education. We can connect you with career exploration opportunities such as internships, volunteer activities, and shadowing that will help you in your decision process. We can also explain state certification, public and private school options, and provide graduate school application and job search support. From first year to professional, we are here for you!

IMPORTANT CHANGES DUE TO COVID-19 (as of 8/27/2021)
GT Pre-Teaching Advising will continue to use a hybrid model of advising (in-person and virtual) until further notice. Click here for updates about GT’s response to COVID-19.
Full-length advisement appointments
For information regarding how to set up appointments in Advisor Link, go to https://neweraadvising.gatech.edu/student-resources.
For in-person appointments:
When you arrive, please take a seat in the lobby of the Career Center, located to the right after you enter the Bill Moore Student Success Center. Your advisor will come to greet you when it’s time for your appointment. THERE IS NO NEED TO CHECK IN. (People who are checking in have appointments with Career Center Career Educators, who use a different appointment system.). In the interest of campus health, our advising team asks that students meeting with advisors in person wear masks to their advising appointment, although it is not required. Additionally, virtual advising is available for students and alumni who prefer that option. Thank you for protecting your community!
For our safety across campus:
- Masks/face coverings are recommended while inside all campus facilities.
- All faculty, staff, and students are strongly encouraged to receive COVID-19 vaccines.
- Stamps Health Services is offering free Covid-19 vaccines at McCamish Pavilion in August and September. https://health.gatech.edu/coronavirus/vaccine (Links to an external site.)

NOTE: Advising via video conference makes ensuring FERPA privacy difficult. Advisors will conduct video advising in a private location and recommend that students do the same to limit the amount of information which could be overheard by others in the vicinity. By agreeing to video conference-advising, students are confirming they understand this situation.
