Georgia Tech: What happens during a residence-hall fire alarm?

By CollegeHousing.ai · Sources checked · 2026-27

DIRECT ANSWER

Evacuate every time the alarm sounds, move to the hall's designated gathering area, and wait for an official all-clear before reentering.

Georgia Tech Housing requires evacuation even if a resident suspects a false alarm. Residents should proceed about 100 feet from the building to the designated gathering point and may reenter only after Housing staff or GTPD gives the all-clear.
