NIL at GT

On July 1, 2021, the NCAA began to allow student-athletes to earn compensation from use of their name, image and likeness (NIL). This opened the door for student-athletes to pursue opportunities for compensation for activities like signing autographs, personal appearances, social media promotion, camps, private lessons, licensed items and more with individuals or companies.

Current or prospective student-athletes may not receive compensation which is contingent on enrolling at or continuing enrollment at Georgia Tech. Also, compensation cannot be tied to specific athletic performance or achievement.
