To complement their educational experience, Nunn School students participate in a wide range of extracurricular activities. Georgia Tech has more than 500 student organizations for students who want to connect, make friends, and build skills. Activities range from cultural, religious, recreational activities, and political organizations to leisure and service among many others!
Some INTA students are involved in Books Not Bombs, Energy Club, Model NATO, the Simulation and Modeling Student Organization (SAMSO), and the International Affairs Student Organization, which engage Nunn School faculty advisors.
Students are also active in other Georgia Tech organizations including Student Government Association (SGA), AIESEC (an international business group), Model United Nations, intramural and intercollegiate athletics, Greek organizations, and the Technique, the student newspaper.
