Scholarships and Recruiting

We also support GT by offering scholarships to DC-area students who will be attending GT as freshmen. Make sure to read our scholarships page if you have a son or daughter interested in becoming a Ramblin' Wreck! The club also recruits at local high school college fairs to get area students interested in attending GT. Contact club VP Emily Bever if you would like to get involved with recruiting.

Club Leadership

Our club activities and events are organized by a wonderful group of club officers and leadership team members who volunteer their time to help make our club one of the top GT clubs in the nation. Please see our "Officers" page for more info on how to contact an officer. We're always looking for more people who want to get involved! Our leadership team meets on the third Monday of every month at the Chevy's Mexican Restaurant in the Ballston Mall at 7pm to discuss and plan upcoming events. Anyone interested in getting involved is welcome to attend. Please contact GTDC Club President, Whitney Owen, if you would like to join us.
