The Graduate Lounge is located on the 3rd floor of the John Lewis Student Center.

The Lounge also hosts social events throughout the year for grad students, and the space can be reserved for grad-focused events and meetings. The Reflection Space is also on the 3rd floor of the Student Center and serves as a space where students can go for quiet activities, such as meditation and prayer. Tech Rec is a recreation space for all students on the 1st floor of the Student Center that has bowling and billiards available for use. Paper and Clay is Georgia Tech’s craft studio (located across from Jimmy John’s and Dunkin’ Donuts) that is open for student use.

Stamps Health Services

Stamps Health Services is the student health clinic on campus, and provides services in Primary Care, Women’s Health, Men’s Health, Psychiatry, Travel medicine, Allergy Injections, Immunizations, Laboratory and Radiology, and Pharmacy. Our clinic is appointment-based, and we are open 8a-5p Monday-Friday, except Thursday mornings when we open at 9am.  

Stamps provides care for both acute illness and injury and preventative care.  

All students taking 4, or more credit hours, both grad and undergrad, pay a health fee with tuition that covers unlimited visits with a provider in Primary Care and Women’s Health, 6 visits with Psychiatry, some labs including strep test, mono test, rapid Covid test, pregnancy test, and STI testing, xrays and flu shots.  

There are charges for other labs, immunizations other than flu, and prescriptions. These additional charges are covered by the Student Health Insurance Plan through United Healthcare that many (but not all) graduate students have through GT. Students who do not have the Student Health Insurance Plan will need to pay for these charges at the time of service. 

Our pharmacy offers many over-the-counter (OTC) products for sale as well as a wide range of prescription medications. Our pharmacy accepts a wide range of insurance plans for payment for prescriptions.

Our services include: Klemis Kitchen (on-campus source of free food); Crisis Housing (temporary place for displaced students to stay while looking for permanent housing); Campus Closet (professional attire to borrow for career fairs and job interviews); and the Dean Griffin Hip Pocket Fund (interest-free emergency loan).
